Music Royalties At All Time Highs

Music Royalties At All Time Highs 01/26/2004 07:41 PM
Whenever I get involved in discussions about online music and suggest that musicians don't need to make their money on CD sales (in most cases, they don't already - they make their money on live performances) people often bring up the question of how will songwriters make their money. After all, the song writers just pen the songs, but don't perform them. Well, it seems that maybe they won't have such a problem as song writing royalties from performance rights are at an all time high despite all the troubles the recording industry is supposedly in. That's because they do receive royalties from public performances of the music - and those aren't decreasing at all. Of course, the song writers are still complaining about how they're not making as much money as they used to, as they're making less from CD royalties. Well, that's what happens when business models change. Most people who create one thing don't get to sit back and collect cash for it for the rest of their lives. Meanwhile, the article includes a quote that shows just how the industry views the internet. It's not about being a communications mechanism that lets everyone communicate back and forth. No, they see it as a one way medium to force content on folks who will pay them for it: "The Internet has not been able to grow as other broadcast venues of entertainment have grown." That's because it's not a broadcast venue. The faster the industry realizes this, the faster they'll be able to get past all the troubles they're having.

Highs and Lows

Highs and Lows 01/23/2004 02:24 PM

The past week has been pretty hectic. It all started when my My grandmother passed away at the age of 88. It wasn't totally unexpected, but sad nonetheless. Going down to Southern California and dealing with funeral and family matters helped me cope and catching up with family reminded me of all the good times we've had together with grandma. I also got to see cousins and aunts and uncles (and ex-aunts and ex-uncles) I hadn't seen in ages, which was great.

Another bright spot in the week came during a lull between family functions. There was nothing to do one day so I went to Disneyland for the first time since about 1995. I grew up a few miles from Disneyland, but I never tire of observing the design of experiences there. They've continued to innovate with just about the most sophisticated parking garage ever built and the fastpass system that lets you cut to the front of the line after a couple hours, instead of waiting in lines. I surprised myself by actually staying in the park from noon until almost closing 11 hours later, and I think it was the fastpass that let that happen. Normally I'd be standing for hours in lines, getting a sore back and feet, but I felt fine up until the end and I got to ride just about everything in the park with very little waiting.

I'll be metering out the photos on my other site for the next week, but I set aside two of my favorite images as desktops: Storybook land whale and the tomorrowland rockets.
