Music Streaming Services
With the launch of Spotify in Australasia this week, we take a look at what the various new subscription music streaming services provide to the public, and what impact they might have on local music business - what's in it for musicians, songwriters and labels? We speak to Stephen O'Hoy of local music aggregator Digital Rights Management (DRM), Round Trip Mars label manager Jim Pinckney, Phoenix Foundation's Sam Scott, and author of 'The Economic Reality Of Streaming' Anil Prasad.

Hear Peter Griffin on This Way Up talking about Spotify here.
