Forget this - this technology is going to be used to create adult entertainment. Jessica Alba vs Marilyn Monroe....

A majority of times, the people that are setting the prices aren't the people who wrote the songs or performed them. They don't know what's really good for the artist as far as exposure. To limit the discourse, I'm addressing music that already has a history with a show. By overpricing the...

But see you're wrong. A song on the radio is being used to enhance the advertising being run on the station. You'll listen to that ad for Dunkin Donuts if you know the Led Zep six pack is on the way. With the way a Clear Channel radio station is programmed, you have no need to buy the song since...

It's the law that when I play a Vanilla Ice song or a Beatles song on my radio station, I pay the same amount. If I go to iTunes, they don't charge twice as much for Ice Ice Baby versus a cover of a Beatles song (since they still refuse to let Apple put out their music).
