It was frustrating to me personally. Of the 4 sharks, EMI was the most forward thinking one, at least to a degree a major label can be. If commenters recall, they were the first to jump onboard with iTunes, and explore other digital delivery avenues. They also tended to sign promising artists that graduated from smaller labels. A lot of artists and fans considered EMI the "biggest indie label".
