The invention of recorded music had made that modern string quartet much more productive. Millions could now hear that music that maybe tens to hundreds heard in the previous century.
- SergeAx 5y agoYes, but it is totally different economy. You need producers, PR researchers, you need sound technicians, you need studios with equipment, you need cover designers, print materials, replication lines, packing lines, music shops, logistics, shop clerks, cashiers. You need playback equipment: turntables, amplifies and speakers. This was 1960s. Today you still need half of these plus all the internet infrastructure, which is not a small deal, online advertising, rights management, social media marketing, music aggregators, phones and computers and smart speakers.
