This isn't about going backwards, it's about finding a sustainable revenue model for artists to create PROFIT going forward - with or without labels.
For all the hype around here about NEW Models it always comes back to the same conversion...
OLD MODEL LESS MUSIC SALES REVENUE : IE playing live and Selling Merch - both of which are not new, the only thing that is new is there is now NO REVENUE FROM MUSIC SALES...
is this so hard to understand? |
What is new is the potential amount by playing live. (30% aprox in UK reading this article). It's fine if you don't believe it or if you think it's only because of old monster's bands doing high priced revival concerts...
And don't forget that the amount of artists actually making money 15 years ago by CD sales are almost negligible. (0.15€ per cd after you pay the label loan?)
Hey, it's fine, we won't convince each other.
