More interesting to me than the content of the email itself is the length. Jesus, that's a three-page email. I have no idea how a long-winded email like this can be convincing. Effective communication is about quickly and concisely providing a message of substance, not writing 3 pages of fluff that could have by written in a paragraph: Hey, I love what you guys have been doing with Spotify. As you know, I had a very similar vision when I built Napster. I would love to extend my help in any of my area of expertise, whether it be the music business, the social space or potential investment. Let's grab coffee and talk a little more! Cheers, -Sean
