Peter Gabriel: Digital Music Downloading's Future

Posted by michael on from the world-according-to-gabe dept.

securitas writes "CNN International's Becky Anderson interviews musician and OD2 online music service co-founder Peter Gabriel about the future of digital music downloads. The interview covers Gabriel's motivations in starting OD2, how technology has changed the music industry business model in the favor of artists and away from the big record labels, and where the small, independent artist fits in. Gabriel's words have weight because of his insights as both a musician/artist and a businessman who guided a digital music on demand distribution (OD2) and download service to success."

      Doing some sport fishing, eh? If you're around lake superior, how about the Hooker Too. On the other hand, perhaps you're more interested in historical replicas. I'm sure you can get a mid-range replica Galway Hooker for a few tens of thousands of Euro in Ireland. Worth every penny. Superb handling, distinctive traditional Western Irish design. Plus you could attend the Portaferry Galway Hooker and Traditional Boat Regatta and show off.

      Yes, the Galway Hooker is a visually stunning boat design, and fun to pilot too.
