The document discusses various aspects of the music industry business, including promotion through music videos, radio play, touring, and digital distribution. It emphasizes the importance of sound quality in mixing and mastering songs, as well as copyrighting materials. The business requires talent, funding from investors, and balancing artistic and commercial goals, though making money is possible if the focus remains on the music itself.
The music industry has declined over the past 10 years due to increased illegal downloading and popularity of streaming services. Many people feel that free music is better and would be willing to pay if artists received royalties. iTunes revolutionized the music industry by allowing people to purchase and download music without buying physical CDs. Rhapsody and Pandora also emerged as popular online music streaming services during this period.
This document provides an overview of the global recorded music market in 2014. Some key points:
- Global recorded music revenues were $14.97 billion in 2014, a slight 0.4% decline from 2013.
- Digital revenues grew 6.9% to $6.85 billion, driven by a 39% increase in subscription revenues. However, declines in physical format sales (-8.1%) and downloads (-8%) contributed to the overall market decline.
- Streaming revenues, including both subscription and ad-supported, now account for 32% of global digital revenues and have overtaken downloads in many markets. YouTube is a dominant platform for music streaming and consumption.
- The US market grew 2.1%
The digital music business is expanding globally as streaming and subscription services surge in popularity. Streaming and subscription revenues grew by over 50% in 2013, exceeding $1 billion for the first time. The number of paying subscribers to subscription services rose to 28 million, up from only 8 million in 2010. Downloads still account for about two-thirds of digital revenues but this is declining slightly as streaming grows. Physical formats still generate over half of global revenues. The music industry market varies globally, with some countries favoring downloads and others streaming, leading to a mixed economy of revenue streams.

It discusses the structure of the industry, dominated by the "big four" major labels (Sony, Warner, Universal, EMI) that control over 70% of sales. Other topics covered include independent labels, integration strategies used by major labels, and how digital technology has impacted industry players and audiences.
