Content Creators 1st, Consumers 2nd, The Industry 3rd

There are a lot of culpable parties in this streaming fiasco. First off, I don’t blame Daniel Ek for seeing a model that can be built, and building it. His premise of “at least we pay, so it’s better than pirating”, is a good position. He had already built and exited companies, so I am…

“grey” content

In an email from Sean Parker to Daniel Ek, in 2009, this sentence jumped out: 4. There are vast repositories of “grey” content on people’s computers across the world. This content is often forgotten by the labels and publishers. The fact that you have a client and P2P capability will allow you to someday unlock…

The Farce Known as the Grammys

December 3, 2014

| Categories: Music Fact

A completely inaccurate method of voting. 1) You don’t vote genre specific, in which you have experience. So the 80 year old classical arranger is voting for metal and conversely the young metal producer is voting for jazz. Totally inaccurate voting. 2) Which creates either a multiple choice type effect, “fuck it, I’ll pencil in…

Open Transparency

Let me be clear, I am not anti-technology, or anti-progress. Streaming is clearly the next evolution in delivery mechanisms. Cylinder to vinyl to 8 track to cassette to CD to MP3 to cloud/streaming. Simple enough. Piracy is nothing new as well, be it bootleggers or the big threat of at home cassette recording/copying. Except public…

The labels weren’t given equity, they BOUGHT the equity, which is even more terrifying. According to newspaper Computer Sweden, which has got hold of documents that Spotify sent to the companies registration office in Luxembourg, the record companies bought the shares for 100,000 kronor (€9.700, $13.900). The record labels are: Sony BMG (5.8 percent), Universal…

Spotify has nothing to do with music, saving the music business, or helping the business, it’s artists, writers, producers, etc. It is 100% a VC and PE backed tech venture whose end game is an IPO. If you chose to believe otherwise, then you are a fool of the highest order, You weren’t fool before,…
