I thought the most interesting comment on this was Williams last week saying how the future of music lay with pester power from kids and Brand image/advertising.
No matter of court cases and technology will surpress those who don't want to pay. digital distribution allows more money to go to the artist and less to the producer/label/manufactorer
etc
but with on-line libraries in their millions, more my space acts than free people to watch them and a sea of charts/top 10s,best ofs. the whole thing is more watered down than ever
Advertisers are the only ones who cut through the noise with a consitent repeated message that sticks. its all about being associated with a brand if you want to make big pop bucks.
