Jump to Comments

Read this article in a recent issue of WIRED magazine.  Written by David Byrne (Talking Heads fame) it goes into 6 new business models for recording artists big and small.  DIY is the most attractive.

 ”The CD? It’s Dead.  Todays artists have surprising new ways to reach fans & make a living.  A guided tour of what’s next”

 ”Major labels aren’t doing well because they put out terrible records for years and years and kept raising the price of those terrible records and finally people were like, ‘Screw you.’”
