Published Oct. 19, 2006 What’s The Download® Interactive Advisory Board: WHO WE ARE Based on research demonstrating the need for a serious examination of the issues facing the music industry in the wake of the rise of illegal downloading, in 2005 The Recording Academy® formed the What’s The Download Interactive Advisory Board (WTDIAB) as part of What’s The Download, a public education campaign created in 2004 that recognizes the lack of dialogue between the music industry and music fans. We are comprised of 12 young adults who were selected from hundreds of applicants by The Recording Academy through a process which consisted of an essay, video application and telephone interview. We come from all over the country, have diverse tastes in music and are joined by Honorary Board Members that include high-profile music creators and industry veterans. Since the launch of our Board at the 47th Annual GRAMMY® Awards, we have been dedicated to discussing issues and finding solutions to the current challenges in the music industry surrounding the digital delivery of music. We have spent the last two years researching these issues and gathering thousands of opinions on issues such as piracy, access to digital music, and file-sharing.

  • Music Aggregators and Intermediation of the Digital Music Market
    International Journal of Communication 9(2015), 254–273 1932–8036/20150005 Music Aggregators and Intermediation of the Digital Music Market PATRYK GALUSZKA1 University of Lodz, Poland This article demonstrates that, contrary to popular belief, the advent of the Internet has not made intermediaries in the music market obsolete. Individual artists and independent record labels who want to sell their music in digital music stores must deliver their records via third-party companies called music aggregators. Drawing on the concepts of new institutional economics, the article demonstrates that the emergence of music aggregators is a market response to the high level of transaction costs and bargaining asymmetry associated with selling digital music online. The conclusion suggests that the major music conglomerates may seek ownership links with music aggregators, leading to the emergence of vertically integrated companies, which may have profound consequences for cultural markets. Keywords: music aggregators, disintermediation, streaming services, digital music, Spotify, record labels Introduction It is difficult to overstate the influence of the advent of the Internet and digitalization on the functioning of cultural industries. Numerous academics and journalists have described what has been happening to the music, film, book publishing, and other cultural industries since 1999—the year when the first massively popular peer-to-peer (P2P) network—Napster—shook their foundations (e.g., Rogers, 2013; Wikström, 2010). Nevertheless, although 15 years have passed, researchers still have quite divergent opinions about the consequences of these changes for artists, businesses, and the consumers of cultural products. One argument that has been put forward claims that communication technologies help democratize creativity by allowing more equal access to technologies and distribution networks (e.g., Fox, 2004; Frost, 2007; Kasaras, 2002; McLeod, 2005).

    Warner Music Group Annual Report 2007 NYSE: WMG www.wmg.com A Message from Chairman and CEO Edgar Bronfman, Jr. Dear Fellow Shareholders: Industry transitions are times of great opportunity, and there is no doubt that the recorded music industry is in the midst of a significant and fundamental transformation. Of course, opportunity does not come without its challenges and this year, Warner Music Group continued to meet and address the challenges of this transition head on, laying the groundwork for future growth. The transformation of the recorded music industry will require not only a clear vision and a progressive strategy to radically alter traditional business models, but also leadership, continued financial discipline and resilience. At Warner Music Group, we are creating the foundation for future growth and believe we have the right strategy in place not only to effectively navigate through these difficult times, but also to reap the rewards of the recorded music industry’s evolution. Looking back on our fiscal 2007, we made meaningful progress in many different areas. Sustaining Digital Leadership During fiscal 2007, digital revenue grew 30% to $460 million or 14% of total revenue and, in the U.S. we once again reported digital SoundScan album share substantially above our physical share. Building upon our digital leadership is essential as the recorded music business rapidly shifts from physical to digital. We entered into selective partnerships across business models that are aimed at driving expanded monetization of our content through new products in the digital space. These partnerships included the acquisition of a majority stake in Zebralution, a German digital distribution company, as well as deals with social networking site, imeem, and online retailer and music discovery site, Lala.com.

In this study, we investigate the salient factors that will affect consumers’acceptance of online digital music stores. Based on the Personal Trait theory, Technology Acceptance Model, and Psychology Flow theory, we propose an integrated conceptual model to explain the emerging phenomena. A simulated lab experiment design and PLS as data analysis method are discussed. The main contribution of this work is theoretical that we identify the factors that may inhibit and promote consumer acceptance of online digital music stores.
