Amen.

They are really an old-school industry that needs to die,and be replaced with independent musicians that release songs on YouTube.

If that happens, YouTube will start squeezing the independent musicians and things will be as bad or worse than before

No, it will not.

YT doesn't squeeze video creators, so he will not squeeze musicians.

Even if YT did, they would be free to move to another platform.
