msb-0210 Whose record is this anyway?

intro

Feedback comes first, so...

I am still unemployed and looking for anything that will pay the rent...

My mother's still hanging in there.

My sister and I are still a bit bummed out.

I've made plans for one last visit.

What the heck? I've got plenty of time now.

And I'm at 31,000 downloads.

Feed Forward comes next, so...

This is "your" segment.

Say "your" piece on this segment.

Share with other MSers whatever "you" want to share.

Drop me an email: charles at MSBPodcast.com

And I would apreciate if someone could write a review of this podcast on iTunes [ http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=120932170 ] You can just select the link and, eventually, scroll down the iTunes page to "Customer Reviews"

Feed Me comes third, so...

Do you have a therapy, product, good or service that is of interest to MSers?

Consider advertising on this podcast.

Reminders on this segment only cost $0.03 per reminder per download of an episode. (A $30CPM targeted at MSers.)

It can/should lead to a full ad, in text, audio or video, which costs $3.00 per download.

That sounds expensive until you do the math and realize that if nobody downloads it it costs you nothing, unlike print, where you often can't even get an ad in to the specialized journals, or radio or TV where you'd just be wasting your money with the 0.0833% MSers rate of return. (That's about six times "below" the level of "statistical noise".)

But MSBPodcast is 100% in your market, and you only pay per download of your material.

No play, no pay.

Reach the MSers who would buy your therapy, product, good or service, with-out having to waste your advertising money on anyone who is "not" interested...

"Thesis:"

The main problem with the record industry is the lack of proper provenance, and the solution is to label things properly as to who is actually getting your money, and for what, when you purchase a particular album, and in the appropriate proportion.

---- "Gnawa of Power" by: "Secret Archives of the Vatican" http://www.brokendrumrecords.com/

"Synthesis:"

One of the areas of dissatisfaction on both sides of the music buying fence is that the rights, and therefore the potential money trails from a purchase, are not clearly spelled out.

That means that every CD cover, or MP3 attached image, would be generated by computer "showing the proportion" of who owns how much of whatever you thought you bought.

This would be mandatory and you would know exactly what you bought, who you bought it from, what rights they allow you, what rights they reserve to themselves and what rights you actually have.

Rather than recall all existing records, the information could/should/would be kept on the CDDB, which already keeps all of the track names and album cover art.

No more wondering about it.

You'd know if you were buying an artists album or if your money was going to a bunch of dentists in suburban L.A.

"And" you'd know "exactly" what it was that you'd bought.

I suspect that nobody'd try to pull that P2P, BitTorrent crap on an artists records again if they knew exactly what it was that they'd bought, and from whom.

"Conclusion:"

The main problem with the record industry is the lack of proper provenance, and the solution is to label things properly as to who is actually getting the money for what when you purchase a particular album, in the appropriate proportion.

That means that every CD cover, or MP3 attached image, would be generated by computer "showing the proportion" of who owns how much of whatever you thought you'd bought.
(The actual dollar amounts are not required, so there is no problem of divulging of any financial information.)

Each right (since copyright covers covers a whole list of them,) and who has it would be listed, either on the album cover and/or in a registry like CDDB.

Including "yours".

I think that you'd be surprised at the number of people who are impacted by every dollar you give for that tune.

Not to mention knowing "what your rights as a consumer actually are."

And you might want to turn down the power at this next song, because the bass is awesome but it could rattle your ear bugs right out of your ear canals.
