Every time a new idea for a site/app/etc. involving 'music' and the 'internet' occurs to me (or is suggested to me), I immediately reject it out of hand: "Nope, DMCA/RIAA/ASCAP/etc. -- too risky."
P.S. Take a look sometime at ASCAP's requirements and fees/rates for digital music services -- it's insane. I don't know how any service could keep ASCAP placated and turn a profit.
- jshap70 11y agoThey're not supposed to turn a profit while complying with their rates. It's a way to make sure they stay in control of who is selling the music.
- jszymborski 11y agoThat's why we need something decentralised as torrents and as flexible and intuitive as Soundcloud.
