I see where your coming from, Simon cowells contracts were notoriously bad. The winner was always guaranteed a Xmas number one and an ep, but after that the label doesn't promote them, and they barely get one single per album. It also doesn't help that the acts aren't allowed to tour until the following summer after they win. It's funny that the runner ups tend to be more famous than the winners (which I put down to the fact that they aren't signed with Syco).
