Really great interview about work, creativity, success, the music industry, etc. Very informative, with several funny parts.

Some interesting points:

- two of the guys have known each other since they were 11

- before the treadmill video, they had a video on iFilm that got 400K views - that's how they got the idea to do internet video

- record labels are useful because they give you the time, freedom and $$ to do stuff like buy 8 treadmills and spend three weeks choreographing a music video

- the internet stuff doesn't make enough money for their label so they need to find corporate sponsors. Different set of problems
