Music 3.0 A Survival Guide for Making Music in the Internet Age

Music 3.0  A Survival Guide for Making Music in the Internet Age rates as one of the best music industry books that I've read...EVER !

The music business has changed at a staggering rate in the last several years and continues to move and morph at an amazing pace.  Much of this is due to technology.  Bobby Owsinki explains the changes and gives practical advice on navigating and taking advantage of the changes. 

You don't have to be Radiohead to incorporate the ideas into your musical situation.  Just knowing that there's such a thing as "Economics of Free" can set your mental wheels turning on how to apply it in selling your music or growing your "tribe." (Growing your tribe is also discussed in the book.)

There's over fifty pages of interviews with people who are on the cutting edge of the music business.

Just knowing that Chapter Seven is "How To Make Money in Today's Music World" should be reason enough to include this book in your library.
