Can VCs Change The Music Industry?

Can VCs Change The Music Industry? 06/02/2004 09:37 PM
People sometimes like to compare record execs to venture capitalists, but one major difference between the two is that, at least VCs realize that the nature of business (even their own) tends to change over time. The record execs still seem to want to deny that. Perhaps things will start to change, now that VCs are starting to get into the music business, looking to build up companies that can challenge the old guard with new technologies and new business models. Of course, the last time VCs tried to get involved with new technologies and business models for the music biz, those VCs got sued by the music biz.

Success Of Download Music Stores Still
Means Industry Needs To Change 11/04/2003 01:19 PM
rax writes "Music downloading software ITunes is more popular than expected. By some accounts the software has been downloaded nearly 1 million times, which has some predicting that music downloads will increase 20-fold in the next five years. Yet the music industry isn't breathing a sigh of relief because even at that level, Internet downloads will only account for 6% of the music market. The Economist points out that the recording industry needs to realize that marketing music online will not save the industry, and that fundamental change is needed if they are to survive." Nothing particularly new in the article, but does include a good quote from Moby: "Why is a record company any more qualified to send an MP3 to iTunes than I am?" The recording industry is still focused on moving their current business model online - and not on using the fundamental nature of digital goods to offer a better product at a better price to their customers. Luckily, it won't take long for others to figure it out for them.

Music Industry Exec Defends Some File
Sharing 01/23/2004 07:37 PM
Coming just as the head of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) is claiming that the recording industry needs a "zero tolerance" attitude on file sharing, a 30-year veteran of the music industry is opening his mind to the possibilities and admitting that file sharing appears to have some benefits to the industry. Andy Taylor, who heads the Sanctuary Group, a company that seems to do a variety of things in the music industry including representing various artists and record labels, was quoted saying: "Sharing music is not necessarily a bad thing." He points out that it's a good way for people to investigate what's out there, figure out what they like, and then go and buy it. "They (teenagers) don't have the money, so they will only spend what money they have on something they really, really care about." Fairly stunning to hear this from a recording industry exec. However, he doesn't seem to fully get it. He still complains about "those who have no intention ever of spending money on music," saying that they're the real pirates. They're not, though. If they have no intention of ever spending any money on music than they're certainly not taking away any money from the industry. The industry wouldn't have gotten it either way. In fact, by letting those people listen to music, it's possible that the industry can change those listeners' minds. In listening to the free music, those who had no intention of spending may find certain musicians interesting enough to want to go out and see them, for instance.
