Cheap Trick: More Afraid Of Being Ignored Than Ripped Off
,----[ Quote ]
| This is just another way of saying that "obscurity is a bigger fear than
| piracy." And while such things are usually applied to new, up-and-coming
| artists, it's nice to see that more well known artists recognize the same
| formula applies to them, as well.

Trent Reznor Explains What A Musician Needs To Do To Be Successful These Days
,----[ Quote ]
| Great stuff, as usual, and certainly reinforces the point: it's certainly
| hard work, but it is doable. If you're unknown, use this process to get
| known. Once you're known, you can start to implement all different elements
| of the business model, using the music to make scarce goods much more
| valuable and start earning that way.

Media Analyst Calls Hulu 'Anti-American' For Providing Free Content
,----[ Quote ]
| We see all sorts of confused analysis when it comes to how "free" works in
| economics -- which goes back to our assertion that the human brain tends to
| run into a mental block when it encounters a zero and rather than recognize
| the rest of the economic equation, it just pops out an error message. That's
| the only explanation I can find for the so-called analysis by Media Metrics'
| Laura Martin of how Hulu is "anti-consumer, anti-media employees, and even
| anti-America" and supposedly putting $300 billion worth of market value "at
| risk" (thanks Ben for sending this in).
