A way to increase music sales

A way to increase music sales 05/29/2004 09:37 AM

I hear songs on the radio and usually cannot remember 5 minutes late who the artist was. When I was younger 20 years to be exact I was up to speed on all the latest releases etc. I had a DJ gig as a part time job at a very popular club. The only real reason I liked being a DJ was it got me into all of the popular clubs and was a very good outlet to meeting women. But today I rely on my kids to tell me who the artist is. But when I do go looking for music it is frustrating sorting through all of the cuts in a album to find the correct track. Techdirt is reporting that song analysis software helps listeners get to the good part in order to find tracks quickly. [Techdirt]

Music Sales Haven't Really Dropped

Music Sales Haven't Really Dropped 05/13/2004 06:34 PM
New Media Musings points us to a week old article showing how the RIAA fudges CD sales figures to show they're dropping when they're actually increasing. It turns out that the RIAA used numbers that only show CD shipments to stores - and not how many CDs were actually purchased. In other words, they're using a number they have some control over. However, back in the real world, consumers are actually buying more CDs. Also, the article notes that stores are realizing they don't need to carry as much inventory, as they can go with more of a "just-in-time" supply chain model. In other words, these fewer shipments also mean that the industry is even more profitable than before. The fact that there are fewer shipments just means the industry has become more efficient. Unfortunately, this doesn't fit with the RIAA's view of the world, so they had to come up with a different method to maintain the fiction that they're selling.
