now, i question why they just don't release new music without her. it might be greed, or inertia, or there is something in the FM contracts giving her the power to stop the release.

You're right. I do think LB and CM in particular are creatively-inclined and eager to move forward. If what you say about Stevie possibly having power to stop an FM release if she isn't on it is true, then that makes her behavior all the more appalling. However, I think it's just the knowledge that if she isn't on it, it won't sell as much, and that, unfortunately, is a bottom-line consideration for this version of band.

But let's go with your theory (which is unfortunately quite possible). In the past, Christine once had a lot of power than she seems to have now. Her being gone for 16 years has changed the dynamic. Stevie wouldn't have nearly this much power to hold the band hostage had Christine never left.
