It's worth noting that indie is a pretty wide tent. Some studios are technically indie but they're working with practically AAA budgets.
I suppose in my mind AAA refers more to certain group of publishers and parent companies. A certain way of structuring companies and doing business. As supposed to a metric of the budget needed for a game.
I think most do and it's a good way to look at it. There are definitely companies out there that people don't think of as indie that are technically independent, so I just wanted to mention it. It's still very cool to hear they've surpassed triple a!
