in Snocap, music-licensing company, lays off 60 percent of staff on VentureBeat
Interesting, I just ran into this post and looking back to a couple of years ago is around when the SNOCAP music selling widget started on myspace. It turns out that the customer service was terrible and artists have tons of complaints of bad accounting. I guess laying off 1/2 the company will have that effect on your ability to do business properly.

in Free vs. Fee Content in a Recession on Coolfer
The other reason that users want to pay less and less is that they have so much space to fill up in their iPods that its just not possible to pay for all that music. So the demand is for more and more songs BUT as close to no cost as possible.

LyricalVenus - it is very easy to "get music out there" and plenty of thousands of gigabytes on iPods to fill up in the world. Tell them to get a package of 1,000 Cds, spend some time to burn it and make their own paper sleeves with "Free Sample" printed on the cover. Total cost is about $.05 each! People to this day tell me that they still play a CD they picked up from coffee shop I long ago dropped them off at.

Wow, so true. Compare it to any other business. If you want to start a restaurant you just do it, you wouldn't even think about the fact that you are not McDonalds (800 pound gorilla)... it's not even an issue. If you have great food, good press and a good location, you will do well.

in Yahoo Offers Streaming Music Within Search on The Inquisitr
I tried this and it's really cool. Yahoo is on a beat Google kick lately, and this is definitely another bonus feature, along with the virus protection in search results that their new radio spots are based on.

This is one of those things that bands and artists will try and learn what "not" to do.

Sorry Grant, but its nothing a band can't already do with a blogspot blog, google analytics and feedburner.

Its true that this is a great way for musicians to start out. The average band or local singer songwriter does not even know about stock music production libraries or that they can be a source of income. I recently uploaded some tracks to eStockMusic - it was really easy and they liked my tracks and approved them. 10 years ago selling music for television and film was soley a matter of who you knew.

This article is a really good explanation of the business so I included it in my recent post about the free instrumental music I offer under creative commons here: http://www.danosongs.com/music_blog/use-my-inst...
