I frankly prefer the independant stuff more for the fact that I'm unlikely to hear it/have it ruined on television or radio. I don't watch much TV or listen to the radio often anyway, but hearing a song like "Fix You" by Coldplay over and over during crappy movie ads or while in a bookstore totally killed any meaning it had for me. Same goes for classic rock songs being used for car ads. "Lease a brand new Tahoe at your local Chevy dealer! I call that a bargain, the best I eeeever haaaad!"
