This week the IFPI Digital Music Report 2012 has an interesting spin on the timing of the content. This is a digital technology company to appear in the U.S. after immense pressure on politicians to stop online piracy bill backed down and keep it up last Friday. "Cyberlocker" site MegaUpload its head, and his associates had their assets seized and three arrested, "unknown" in targeting music companies' and Universal's website.
It is, however, be optimistic about the future of the music industry in the future, when the government's desire to try out more about the threat of piracy is not to rob Wells, Universal's president of global digital business, was willing to have a go. He praised the U.S. for two, with faster streaming services to digital piracy, which is a legal option has grown over the last three years, one of them, and Spotify, more than last year's million-subscriber growth - and still have not bought digital music in the fall.
However, many do not consider the size of the U.S. population, but these services are still in their infancy compared to Sweden, Spotify's entrance. The record label (although significant, was the only majors IFPI represents the presentation of) Spotify and their claim that the artists of the overwhelming support for the generation of significant revenue, it appears that the artist (and a small label) disagree and still have their reservations, among others - - the music services to their most recent album, Do not let Adele, Coldplay and the Black, illustrated by. The label decided to come to, but not to the artist.
Lyricist of the community, that the question of why the label, such as PRS (who represent songwriters), as well as the collection is divided into sections of society should be the same as for the CD to the growing dissatisfaction - sometimes assist a more oblique or even a record label - label of production and income when the contract does not come with a digital file . Royalties to be divided into "open" depending on the rest of the record label / performers will go with the music service, for example, only 10% down 20% from a can. If you label the outside of their songs that surely must be the change you want to prevent songwriters.
Google for some serious criticism of the IFPI's piracy of motion that the corporation is $ 60m in its $ 290bn financial commitment to that part of the costs. They number 100,000, the violation in question, capping a day for Google to criticize, to be notified if they are down 10,000 from a hat.
Wells maintains that Google launched a music service that has been understood to mean that they also may be related to piracy, even though he is still a massive problem with YouTube as well as to correct the lack of government revenue. Music fans noticed that the YouTube videos they may find there are many Vevo logo. Vevo-owned record labels, some are - and many more advertising revenue for YouTube, as compared to the label pulls - but now in partnership with YouTube. When considering Facebook, or YouTube with the latest rumors are to be asked about Vevo, Wells smiled and said: ". No opinion - though I am on the board"
However, many ISPs have to take deliberate action to change the high court for each site - the selection of resistant cases of rejection, the partnership board also believes ISPs are in Wales will play a pivotal role. "ISPs can not decide how much music of their pipes," he said. "The moment one ISP breaks [and a music service, music industry with a partner], and we have extra time, and artist exclusives, and others. Will follow"
Noting that although this is not the value of 8% by 2011 in the global digital revenue growth, the purchase of Downloads No. (attached single and album) 17% increase - in other words, downloading each average value. It is debatable if not by Lady Gaga last album of 99c and sales of this contribution. It was a loss maker for suicide, and they were universal, regular royalty rate of pay. Has been reduced, but there is value in the last year, an increase in the number of albums. Wales also had to ensure that the revenue increase is due to some legal digital music and the country was on the site before.
And what about the available MegaUpload? IFPI, an industry level that are not copyrighted, the ferry is not a valid cyberlockers not worry - for those who do should be cautious. What is the impact of piracy on MegaUpload will be able to stop it quickly, but here are some Web traffic numbers are already dropping.
Sopa, Frances Moore, IFPI chief executive, said the U.S. is still a lot of back-down commitment to combat piracy, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a pipe Citing: "Americans rightfully expect to be compensated for the work of approximately 4. I am optimistic that we will protect the IP of the week can reach a compromise. "
Even as the sound of the Welsh public have positive effects Sopa saw: "This is to prevent the red out - and I" - even if that feeling that it was brought down on Thursday extended his company's website is not clear.
