Inside the short, troubled life of a music start-up
- michael_dorfman 17y agoIn one case, the start-up spent $300,000 to host a video from pop singer Alicia Keys that managers claimed would draw 1 million new users. But without any of her hit songs in the clip, only 5,000 visitors showed up. Ouch.
- allenbrunson 17y agoi think this kind of model is doomed. trying to get the old-skule record labels involved is a recipe for failure. i'd prefer to see a whole bunch of boutique web 2.0 record labels, making new stars out of heretofore unknown acts, using entirely new revenue models.
