Posted in Uncategorized Tags: Commission Junction, computer, drop shipping companies, eBay, form, main key, Money, music, Online, reason, tangible goods, way, web design data Comments Off November 4th, 2010 admin A couple months ago, rumors made the rounds that Apple was going to double the length of song previews in iTunes from 30 to 60 seconds. An expected announcement did not appear, however, apparently because the music publishers (who in the past have already claimed — without success — that Apple should pay performance fees on those 30 second previews) felt Apple first needed to get permission from them, as well as the labels. So it’s interesting to see that, at least with the record labels, Apple appears to be taking an aggressive approach, sending out letters simply telling labels that their deals have changed and song previews will now be 90 seconds : It’ll be interesting to see if Apple did the same thing with publishers… because you’d have to imagine that the publishers would quickly file a lawsuit if that’s the case. According to Greg Sandoval, over at News.com, Apple is still negotiating with the publishers. That article includes a typically ridiculous quote from Rick Carnes of the Songwriter’s Guild: “It’s like giving away ice cream samples–someone has to pay the cost,” said Rick Carnes, president of the Songwriters Guild of America. “I think it would be a good thing for consumers to go to 90 seconds. But they’re tripling the amount of time, and they want it for free. I think there ought to be compensation. I believe anytime you use music, you ought to reward the people making the music.” Does Rick really believe that? If so, the Songwriters should fire him as their leader. What he should be looking for is what will maximize the revenue overall , not what will maximize the revenue per use. If you get paid per use, and it means shorter previews — but that means many fewer sales and less overall money for the artists, then Carnes with his “anytime you use, you pay” philosophy is doing serious harm to the songwriters. And, of course, the actual evidence goes against Carnes. Studies have shown that such longer previews increases purchasing, but the publishing folks and the songwriters like Carnes are more interested in licensing than in direct sales anyway (even if that’s really short-sighted). It’s too bad that the Songwriters Guild would be represented by someone without their best interests in mind. Permalink | Comments | Email This Story

We’ve already discussed how ridiculously complex it is for a music startup to obtain the licenses it needs. Combine that with the ridiculously high rates demanded by the record labels and the fact that they demand licensing for things that shouldn’t need additional licenses, and you understand why it’s so difficult for music startups to survive, and why the market is so fragmented. You hear it all the time. Spotify isn’t available in the US. Pandora isn’t available outside the US. And so on. Name the startup and there are serious restrictions on it. Things in Canada are pretty bad, where they basically don’t have any of these music services, and it’s because the Canadian recording industry is apparently demanding absolutely, positively insane fees — such as 45% of gross revenue. Yes, gross revenues. If you know anything about the finances of these kinds of businesses, that’s laughable. As Pandora’s Tim Westergren notes, Canadian radio stations pay approximately 2.1% of gross revenue to the recording industry. As I read the article, what struck me about it is that, for all the complaints about how Canada was supposed to be some evil “pirate haven,” here was a clear case of how its ridiculous copyright situation was keeping new music services out. If copyright were really so weak in Canada, you wouldn’t have this issue at all. And then I got to the end of the article, where the Canadian Recording Industry Association boss, Graham Henderson, made the following guffaw-inducing statement: The music industry, meanwhile, says its fees are not the problem. It says music-related businesses are reluctant to enter Canada because of the country’s reputation as a file-sharing haven where music fans can download songs illicitly without fear of penalty. “Why would you spend a lot of money trying to build a service in Canada when Canadians take so much without paying for it?” said Graham Henderson, president of the Canadian Recording Industry Association, which represents major record labels. “[Canadians] just seem to have no appetite for a legal marketplace.” This comes after 26 paragraphs discussing all the different music services that want to enter the Canadian market, but can’t because of the ridiculous rates that the recording industry wants to charge. It always shocks me that folks like Henderson can make such blatantly false statements like this and people don’t call him on it. He gets away with it because no one points out that his statements make no sense. Permalink | Comments | Email This Story
