I feel like Planet Money (as much as I love them) kind of missed the point with their podcast, and it was nice to see Jonathan run with it.
This is indeed the future of music. Fragmentation. From major labels, to indie labels, to individual musicians or even communities. While the rise of Justin Bieber from the bowels of YouTube might be an anti-point, I still suspect it will only get even more intimate as time goes on. Music discovery only needs to get a little more subtle with existing social services.
