First of all, neither Mya or Ashanti are currently affiliated with any major label. Both are operating very independently, so their imprints are not too far removed from what Janet's doing. Second of all, so what if they were? It's always better to have major label distribution if you can get it.

I swear, you people are in here acting like she just created a 4th major label or is on some innovative shit. Any Tom, Dick or Harry can start a boutique record label. All you need is an name, a copyright, and a mailing address. She's just doing what most over-40 singers do who want to continue their career long after they peak do and industry interest is low.
