Thanks for pointing that out.

I was going to post a link to Lowery's essay and then thought better of it as I figured I would get dragged into an artist's rights versus hark-the-freetard-angels-sing spat.

All I will say is that many of the voices who advocated free as a way of doing business in the arts are getting quieter as labels fold. Of the self promoters and bloggers the ones that most effectively used the debate to get themselves a profile are now getting jobs at places like Live Nation as new media advisors. Even the venerable Lefsetz shills for Rhino/Warner while banging the Spotify drum.

Other than Apple who has benefitted more from the collapse of the record business than the behemoths of the concert promotion business?

Meet the new boss ....
