How could this be done online. What approaches/forms could this take on Myspace, facebook, ect?
I love this comment. Yes, I wonder how we could find some way to share music, for free, on the Internet.
- whatusername 17y agoWhen you tell me how to have an emotional shared concert experience on the Internet, then we can talk about sharing the music.
- dschobel 17y agoI don't understand this comment. It's like talking about sharing the pub experience on the Internet whereas the article was more of an affirmation of the AOL style of distribution/publicity from the 90's. As others have pointed out, Sivers may have over-cooked this example a bit. Statements such as: The people that took a CD became long-term fans and brought their friends to future shows. may make you feel good but there's no way the evidence suggests that.

- lux 17y agoA better question is how to make this an experience versus just another of the hundred million freebies. Everything online is free, so it's no differentiator any more and the few bands who could get a bit of press from it have gotten it now. But how can we actually connect with listeners online? Services like thesixtyone.com are a good start. For those artists who want to put that effort in (and figure out how), they can connect with listeners as peers in a system. And that's a start. The iTunes LP is another attempt at the online experience but we'll see whether that proves to actually provide a real experience people want. I'm hopeful myself. So, what else? Virtual concerts? extras? ideas? :)
