Website owners place on their pages music grids that iJamr generates. Site owners entertain their visitors with free music but the music is also up for sale. (Music cannot be downloaded by site's visitors without paying for it first). In a way each CD cover within the iJamr Music Grid functions pretty much like " Ads by.........." . Site owners and musicians benefit. The iJamr Music Grid adapts to your site design (from a simple button, to an horizontal or vertical grid on the margin of your site to a full web page grid.)

|
Posted by: Admin on Friday, January 27, 2006 - 05:46 PM |
|
Data published last week by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry has found that global music sales fell by 2% last year - as rapidly growing digital sales failed to make up for declining sales of physical media. The total value of worldwide music sales has fallen by $6.7bn since 2000.
However, according to new research by media consultancy Screen Digest, the global market for digital music has only just begun to take off - music downloaded to the PC will be worth more than $585m a year by 2010 in the UK and $1.3bn across Europe as a whole. While in the US the market will be worth $2.2bn per year.

Music Business: Sony Ponies Up for Payola

Behemoth to pay $10 million, stop paying for radio play
Sony BMG Music Entertainment -- an umbrella organization that includes
Arista Records, Columbia Records, Sony Music International and So So
Def Records -- agreed today to pay a $10 million settlement in an
industry-wide investigation by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer
into payola, the practice of paying radio stations for airplay of their
artists. The corporation will cease paying for play and, according to
Spitzer, will also hire a compliance officer to keep tabs on its
behavior.
"Our investigation shows that, contrary to listener expectations that
songs are selected for air play based on artistic merit and popularity,
air time is often determined by undisclosed payoffs to radio stations
and their employees," Spitzer said in a press conference Monday
morning. The settlement, he added, "is a model for breaking the
pervasive influence of bribes in the industry."
