Chris Seefried, Jay Nash, Joe Purdy and Meiko at the Living Room Tomorrow
Come join us and our new found west-coast songwriter friends this Friday evening at the Living Room. Music should kick off at 8PM. Their sounds reminisce on Laurel Canyon circa 1969 but is better-made for the Starbucks generation. Get in touch with me if you would like to find out more info or would like to come down. xo, Margo
CD Baby Sells Business To Disc Makers, What's the Big Deal?
Posted on Brooklyn Vegan in industry | music on August 7, 2008
CD Baby sells business to Disc Makers
"But now my new projects are exciting me so much that I decided to hand over CD Baby to someone that's going to make it better than ever for you. I chose Disc Makers as the new owner because their president Tony Van Veen has been one of my favorite people for years, and I always felt they'd do a better job of running CD Baby than I would." [CD Baby founder Derek Sivers]"
Trust me, this is good thing for indie artists.

Merlin Issues Statement Regarding Last.fm Artist Royalty Program from Mi2N
Business News [07-13-2008]
Merlin Issues Statement Regarding Last.fm Artist Royalty Program
The bulletin highlighted the following important points:
* "The Program announced today does not appear to offer any compensation for any past illegal use of repertoire. It is unclear to us whether or not the terms and conditions of the Program are intended to prevent master owners pursuing such compensation.
* "As you will be aware, we have for the last few months been negotiating with Last.fm regarding a non exclusive blanket licence and a settlement agreement on behalf of Merlin members. Unfortunately, these negotiations have stalled - in particular due to Last.fm's unwillingness to properly address its illegal infringing activity.
* "Several provisions of the licence terms and conditions of the Program appear ambiguous and open to legal interpretation. We note that this would tend to lead to uncertainty as to the "true" meaning of the licence. The licence points out that if you are unsure about any of it "YOU ARE ADVISED TO OBTAIN INDEPENDENT LEGAL ADVICE" - we would endorse that view."
Merlin membership numbers over 12,000 labels - representing, without a doubt, the largest and most commercially significant bundle of music rights outside the majors.
This brings their current market share in the US alone to over 8%, equal to that of EMI Music. Worldwide, members were responsible for 72% of Europe's top 60 independent albums for the past three years and a 75% market share of the top UK's 75 independent albums in 2007.
Merlin's remit is to represent the world's independent sector and act as an efficient central point of entry to the music it represents, in particular for digital, new media and web 2.0 rights. Merlin provides an unprecedented efficiency in bringing together the world's most commercially important independent repertoire in one place.
