    About this ebook

    The music industry is one of the most dynamic and fascinating business sectors. Its business model has continually to adapt and react to changing technologies that impact at every level from distribution to artist management.

    The Economics of Music provides a concise and rigorous presentation of the economics of the music business. It highlights the economic principles that govern a business that is an economic good protected by copyright law. The core sectors of the industry – publishing, recording, live music – are examined and how they operate together through a myriad of licencing arrangements.

    The revenue streams for recording companies are analysed alongside the income stream of musicians to show how particular formats and platforms affect profit margins and how live performance now outstrips music sales as the primary source of income for today’s artists.

    The book shows how a combination of established publishers, new promoters and a new generation of music providers has created a heady mix of competing and collaborative economic models. Add to this a growing DIY culture among musicians and the ever-changing behaviour of consumers and, as the author shows, we have the most challenging of economic landscapes but one nevertheless capable of generating huge returns.

      The editor asked me to write about the ‘green shoots of recovery’ for this issue. Poetically, it makes sense. New year, new hope and all that. Realistically, though, it’s a tough task. Vaccines may well beat back this terrible virus in the next few m
