CMU Webinars: The Digital Dollar Debates
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 25 January 2023
The latest series of CMU webinars is currently underway with three sessions explaining the ins and outs of the ongoing economics of music streaming debate.
You can still sign up and access a recording of the first two sessions, and then access the third and final session next week, either as it goes out live or subsequently on-demand.
The three webinars are as follows…
How The Streaming Business Works
To participate in all the digital dollar debates, you need to understand how the streaming business model works. In this webinar we run through the licensing deals negotiated between the music industry and the key digital services, explaining how everyone gets paid.
The Digital Pie Debate
Is the way streaming revenue gets shared out across the music community fair? Many people argue it is not and have proposed alternative approaches to slicing the digital pie, some of which involve changes to copyright law. This webinar explains each of the proposals.
The Data & Transparency Debates
Issues around music rights data create complexities and inefficiencies in the digital music market. Meanwhile, a lack of transparency makes it difficult for music-makers to understand how different digital services impact on their own artist businesses. This webinar sets out the issues and considers the proposed solutions.
