Free Downloads Helps The Classical Music Business
In 2005 The BBC made all 9 of Beethoven’s symphonies available & free to download. At first, naturally, the record execs weren’t happy. But guess what happened? The move opened doors to new fans, wider interest in classical music and actually sparked business and sales. The rebound is the clasicql music business being very much resposible by it using the internet.
What? You mean use the internet effectively to improve sales and business instead of suing people? Someone call the RIAA.
After being initially freaked out by using the internet the classical music industry now embraces the technologies and has seen a resugence. I say - good for them! Now can someone please cut & paste this news article and send the link to the RIAA and every single record label?
