I'd say it's more a case of making the money out of Artic Monkeys/Franz Ferdinand so they can continue to put out music they love that probably won't make any money. Or maybe I'm not being cynical enough.

Franz Ferdinand and Arctic Monkeys are two of Domino's most recent signings aren't they? Similar for Maximo Park and Warp maybe? Perhaps they're bidding obscurity goodbye

nah, Domino have signed loads lately. theyve been using the cash from the Monkeys and FF to put out records by Psapp (not bad), Beautiful New Born Children (not good) and a couple of other things too which escape my memory.

It's like Network releasing stuff like
A Peak Practice
Soldier Soldier
London's Burning

which sell really well and help finance them putting out lesser known stuff like
Public Eye
The Power Game
Special Branch
Strange Report
etc
