  • The Effects of Digital Music Distribution" (2012)
    Southern Illinois University Carbondale OpenSIUC Research Papers Graduate School Spring 4-5-2012 The ffecE ts of Digital Music Distribution Rama A. Dechsakda [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: http://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/gs_rp The er search paper was a study of how digital music distribution has affected the music industry by researching different views and aspects. I believe this topic was vital to research because it give us insight on were the music industry is headed in the future. Two main research questions proposed were; “How is digital music distribution affecting the music industry?” and “In what way does the piracy industry affect the digital music industry?” The methodology used for this research was performing case studies, researching prospective and retrospective data, and analyzing sales figures and graphs. Case studies were performed on one independent artist and two major artists whom changed the digital music industry in different ways. Another pair of case studies were performed on an independent label and a major label on how changes of the digital music industry effected their business model and how piracy effected those new business models as well. I analyzed sales figures and graphs of digital music sales and physical sales to show the differences in the formats. I researched prospective data on how consumers adjusted to the digital music advancements and how piracy industry has affected them. Last I concluded all the data found during this research to show that digital music distribution is growing and could possibly be the dominant format for obtaining music, and the battle with piracy will be an ongoing process that will be hard to end anytime soon.

  • In the Matter of an Inquest Touching Upon the Death of Mr Joseph Parker
    BEFORE THE CORONER FOR NORTHERN IRELAND MR JOSEPH McCRISKEN THE INQUEST TOUCHING UPON THE DEATH OF MR JOSEPH PARKER ___________________________________________________________________________ Introduction [1] Before I begin to deliver my findings with respect to the death of Mr Joseph Parker I firstly want to give appropriate thanks to Court Service and Coroners Service staff, in particular my investigator Ms Logan, and to all those who have been concerned in the preparations for this inquest. [2] This has been a long and difficult exercise and I wish to pay tribute to my Counsel Mr Daly BL and my Solicitor Ms Lloyd–Stevens, Mr Coll QC, Mr Fletcher BL and Solicitor Ms Meegan, who represented the Ministry of Defence, and Ms Doherty QC, Mr Fahy BL and Mr Ó Muirigh, Solicitor, who represented Mr Parker’s family. Each legal team have gone about their task in a professional and dedicated way and have tested the evidence in this difficult inquest in a sympathetic and sensitive yet robust manner. They are a credit to their profession and proof, if it were needed, of the high standard of legal representation available in Northern Ireland. [3] I wish to recognise the resolve and determination of the Parker family, especially Mr Parker’s sister Teresa and daughters Joanne and Charlene. They have waited almost 46 years for a new inquest into the circumstances of Mr Parker’s death and I hope that these findings provide some measure of closure. 1 Relevant law [4] Rule 15 of the Coroners (Practice and Procedure) Rules (Northern Ireland) 1963 (the 1963 Rules) governs the matters to which inquests shall be directed.

The purpose of the thesis was to do profound research on the eBook market in the USA for the case company Litnet. The importance of this research derives from the case company’s interest in the market. The research conducted for Litnet was made by utiliZing several marketing research frameworks such as PEST analysis, Porter’s Five Forces model, and SWOT analysis. Both qualitative and quantitative research methods were applied in the study. The research discovered that the overall attractiveness of the US market is high for Litnet. The research showed that the industry infrastructure is favourable. The market is characterized by a high level of rivalry and low en- trance barriers. There are different models of eBooks distribution, such as traditional per copy sales, subscription services, and pay per chapter services. The market may experience pressure from audiobooks and print books sales. Litnet may use the differentiation strategy to escape the direct competition in the market. The research gives an overview of the eBook market in the USA and analyses prerequisites for Litnet's possible market strate- gies.
