Wow in 2007 he predicted streaming services like Spotify and Rdio.
Don Passman is the man!!! He inspired me to become a Entertainment Lawyer. Tone Fox ESQ coming soon!
He definitely say the future of music! Foresaw Spotify, and the Cloud, just to name a few.
Passman's knowledge of the music industry really bogels my mind.
... Vinyl ... never ... dies...
i took his book to my first interview with a entertainment lawyer he's the man
Fantastic.
I think some people are missing the point. Yes, it is much easier for the artist to make their own recordings cheaply or put up a myspace to promote themselves. The age of the CD is certainly dying, but the music business is undergoing a restructuring.
The business will start to revolve less around CD's and more around promoting the artist by licensing the artist's material and finding new ways to distribute music. The artist will still need a company that has the resources to help do this.
Wow great information, thank you for sharing PaulCookeMusic 5* A.D.

Ilike your chanel,very cool,have a super nice day my friend
chapter 15 : Copyright Basics
1) basic copyright concepts
2) what are all these rights you get?
3) exceptions to the copyright monopoly
4) compulsory mechanical licenses(which basically means when someone HAS to give you the right to use/play their music, as long as it has been previously released to the public in cd/record/mp3 form,this chapter is confusing!)
It basically explains how a copyright is a "limited duration monopoly" which gives the creator the sole rights to their music.
I love you guys site.
I'm definitely looking forward to buying his revised book when it's available. But does anyone know if there are any books out there that go into detail about songwriting. I want to know everything from developing concepts to writing hooks. If anyone has any book titles just send a message to my inbox
the new format that's going to dominate the world of (recording) music is called 'Prehumistus Compression' as covered in the new issue of 'Scientific Monthly'
What it will do is collect strenuous data pockets lost in the stream of contained presumptive direction and volatilize it into a brand new phosphoric transcriber .
@1Mellodee true...the rules will be re-written again and again.
@AykinSkywalker Holy shit man 20 likes!! you changed the world. good for you
I, for one, am glad the industry is changing. The old model was flawed from the start.
The next record companies will be companies who aren't even in the music business; Starbucks, Target, McDonald's, Toyota, iTunes, etc. This is good, because record companies know very little about good music themselves. All they are is "big". Hey, IBM is big too..
Yes, youtube, myspace, and other internet resources have been around for years, yet we still haven't had a Zepplin, we still haven't had a Metallica. That's because the market is over saturated, which means LESS quality control. Nobody ever goes through thousands of myspace pages looking for a band that doesn't suck, because many do on myspace. Metallica became popular because of the live show and word of mouth, but they didn't get huge until they signed to a Major and did a video.
is there anyway you can read this book for free online anywhere or can anyone tell me what chapter 15 is about i couldnt afford to buy the book so anything will really help me out
Yo! none of the videos work, there is no
play button to operate the videos, nor does it appear when you up load them.
Whatz up ??????????
agree, artists/basically record companies are making money due to this but disagree on that I still love buying a CD kind of like people still buying vinyl. There such an enjoyment putting it in and sitting back and listening. I dot buy itunes when I just want individual songs. Also downloading for free craps your computer up and give credit to the artists that make us happy or be selfish if you really want, I don't personally care what you do. this means nothing.
DAMN YOU NAPSTER!!!
Five years in the making, the recording industry documentary "Behind The Suit And Tie" appears to finally be on the brink of release. A new six-minute extended trailer can be viewed below. check my page for the trailer
Won't get anyone in CA to be interested in your music. They have their OWN local/ indie bands to support.
This is where promotion via TV, Radio, interviews in newspapers or popular internet sites, reviews from popular magazines and websites, a street team, will help. This is why there will never be a huge band based solely on the internet with no label help. T
Of course, being a huge band isn't EVERYTHING, but just know the true realm of possibility.
usely if it sounds too good to be true it normally is
A video on MTV, where everyone could see how different they were, and how good they were compared to the other bands at the time. They simply did not have access to that market as an indie label act. There's also issues of promotion? We're bombarded with so many ads on the internet daily, how are you going to make someone give a shit about your band? There's so many on myspace, yours will look like "just another mysapce band". Plus, if you're a local PA band you won't get anyone in CA
How can there be jobs for that many entertainment lawyers when there are no jobs for recording engineers?
as long as the artist /pulisher has a tangible copy of their work...

@1Mellodee dinosaur ? nah this was filmed in 2007.
wow he called the i phone

OK but here's my theory on ringtones:
Some of the rich men, get their riches from the ghetto. As far as I can see...
All the poor ones, that live in the ghetto.
They put all their trust in vanity
And that's why, the rich ones shall be richer.
And the poor ones shall be poorer.
That's how it goes, that's where it's at.
~Toots and the Maytals
You miss the point.
If other large conglomerates enter the music business it would keep the traditional record companies more honest.
Record company executives, by and large, are already tone-deaf. Starbucks or Target could do much worse. Besides it would open up the industry to talent that is getting overlooked at present.
This has nothing to do with hamburgers.

The reason that millions upon millions of listeners even download music illegally is so they don't have to spend THEIR money. So musicians have the right to wanna keep their money as well. I do believe to an extent that getting the music out is really important, but as a musician how can I afford to keep putting out quality music without any income? And in the Indie grey area, they might not reach as many people, but the artists get A LOT more per record, so we can't say that they're saints.
I believe the music buisness was never healthy to start with, given it is first and foremost, a buisness. As an example of this, I offer the hundreds of artists who have had their tracks pulled out of fan videos -or official videos- that the companies who represent (or represented) them, did not authorize. By exercising control over a track they didn't write, this shows how deep they can bury an artist into oblivion.
Love of music? More like:
"No longer a 'going concern'? Screw you."
In other words, you didn't get a thing.
Perhaps a high paying position at a real corrupt record company suits you.
I am sure with your insight, you'll do a stellar job.
i hate the way the music business is. i took a music biz program in college and dropped out after the first semester. i just think it is a very very dysfunctional business that is full of degenerates, and nothing against those who do their job right. alot of drugees and alcys are in the biz too, i tell you noooo lies
My GURU, can you help me sue Sony and Sade master:) paul cooke
