It's absolutely remarkable that we've got represenatives of the ISP world coming to a music industry conference saying 'We want to work with you, monetise the activity and generate money for the music industry'". http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-f-word-monetising-filesharing-an-industry-solution http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download/GM_Teaser_1.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download The Great Digital Debate: How Do You Divvy Up A Download? Gary McClarnan The majors, I believe, are the prime culprits for comoditising music files and comoditising an aspect of what an artist does, and are certainly to blame for the reducing value of physical and potentially digital music sales. But what I didn't want to do was to leave the indies out. There's an interesting thing that starts to happen when you have a go at the majors - that everyone says the indies are fantastic. Well, here's some real truth and I spend alot of time with the indies - they're just as bad with some of this. They don't know the value of their music, whether it's the deals they do in synchronisation or whether it's to do with how they've offered their catalogues in the past for deals without distributing it down to the individual musicians or performers or bands they have signed. http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/pimp-my-tune-making-music-compete-with-free/John_Dyer_teaser_1.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/pimp-my-tune-making-music-compete-with-free Pimp My Tune: Making Music Compete With "Free" John Dyer http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/pimp-my-tune-making-music-compete-with-free http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download/Mark_Mulligan_Teaser_1.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download The Great Digital Debate: How Do You Divvy Up A Download? Mark Mulligan "iPods account for well-over half of the install-base of mp3 players, iTunes account for 65-75% of the digital music market. That means the digital music market is dependent on how well iPods are doing, not on how well the music is doing - the tail is wagging the dog." http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download/Thor_teaser_2.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download The Great Digital Debate: How Do You Divvy Up A Download? Thor-Arne Pettersen "The music industry is pissing in their pants to keep warm at the moment - it's very short-sighted and afterwards they stink!" "The stinking is clearer and clearer. In the '80s everybody was sayig never again on MTV, in the '90s everybody was saying never again on iTunes." http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/the-great-digital-debate-how-do-you-divvy-up-a-download http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Merlin_teaser_1mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Merlin Stone ...most people in the classical music industry (as we established at the ABO last year) don't really like customers, [they] live for their orchestras and not their customers, with a few exceptions http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Chas_teaser_1_mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Chaz Jenkins Often people why bother making new recordings anyway? 'cos there's so many on retailers shelves anyway - so many things have been recorded so many times. The answer is the public expect each generation of leading artists not only to appear in concert, but to make recordings - it's what the public expect...to be blunt, it is very difficult for new audiences to connect with dead artists... http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Merlin_teaser_2_mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Merlin Stone What I discover here is almost as if I were going back 30 years, to an era when companies were afraid of customers and not prepared really to understand their needs http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Costa_teaser_2_mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Costa Pilavachi I simply can not imagine how one can be in the record industry today and only think 'audio' - that era is over. http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Costa_teaser_1_mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Costa Pilavachi The days of thinking 'only audio' are over in my opinion. And there's a whole movement going on now...of a consolidation in the classical audio visual industry. There are a lot of small producers producing the millions of DVDs appearing in the shops and there a couple of big companies gobbling-up them up and creating 'majors' out of these video companies, and so far the major record labels have ignored this phenomenon completely, and do so at their peril... http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future/Cathy_teaser_1mp3.mp3 http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future Classical Music: A Tradition With A Future Cathy Graham It's not only technology that's changed the availability of recordings, it's also a huge change in attitude of musicians as well. Ten years ago, when I first started working in the music industry here, the thought that musicians would record and sell for no up-front fee was almost unheard-of...attitudes are changing from performers themselves. http://www.musictank.co.uk/events/classical-music-a-tradition-with-a-future
