It's business.
If they're placing products that'll mean those companies are probably funding the videos.
So business-wise, it probably makes sense for the label to show a close-up on the odd watch or car, to have the video paid for. Rather than spending, however much videos cost to make, themselves.[/quote]
they have millions of dollars, stop being a tight ass and pay for it if thats the case[/quote][/quote]
I know they do - but if you were a business man and had the chance to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in budget, in exchange for a two second ad, you wouldn't?
Artistically, it annoys us. But the business side of the label doesn't care, money is their main motivation, they're not artists. So to them, why wouldn't they.
