Indieutgivere
Indieutgivere, often referred to as independent publishers, are companies or individuals that publish books, music, games, or other creative works without the financial backing and distribution channels of a major corporation. They operate outside the traditional publishing industry, allowing for greater creative freedom and often catering to niche markets. The rise of digital technologies and the internet has significantly lowered the barrier to entry for indieutgivere, making it easier for creators to self-publish and reach an audience directly.
