I have heard Jane describe this differently.  She said they wanted to impose 
a producer on her, but she had it written in her contract that she had choice 
of producer so she didn't have to go along.  Warner then made her an offer to 
allow her out of her contract, which I presume took her out of debt to them.  
She saw it as a blessing to get out of it because she was falling further and 
further into debt to them, and my impression was that she'd still get some 
kind of residual from record sales (but I'm making a leap there).  

It's been fun reading all the impressions of what Jane's shift is to all you 
siblings.  I hope it means more music.
