Artist -> Music -> Label/CD -> Money

In some surreal future…

Artist -> Music -> Publicity/Avertisement -> Money

I see lots of them desperate, thinking about gigs and t-shirts as their only potential income. Do you pay to access a popular website? Don’t you think they make some cash? The only thing that bands have to sell in order to turn music into a real bussiness is their own publicity. Think about professional athletes. Do you have to buy a CD to watch a soccer game? No but, while you are watching it, somebody is trying to sell you something…

Often new artists need to publish a physical CD still. Music critics, journalists, DJ’s and reviewers will not review music which are not published on a physical media. They even often still request CD’s send to them, and refuse downloads.

Secondly, registering your copyrights is also still to a large extend linked to the physical medium.

This is real stupid, as it adds considerably to the cost of publishing a new set of songs or tunes.

Today this procedure is a complete waste, and the sooner it is stopped the better.

However, a really good service, if it’s very reasonably priced, might work, but my experience with young people is that they all have iPods and don’t listen to regular or Internet radio so it’s how things get on the digital music devices that determines whether music is paid for at all. Verizon charges $15/month for their vcast service which didn’t impress me at all, and then $2 to directly download a song to a phone. That’s way too much money to discourage copying to the device without paying.

There, the fans are the record company.
