Chinwag Live: Music - who pays the piper?

As music streaming services take off, will marketers make the jump from radio and pay the bill? Or is it time we paid the piper?

Personal digital music consumption is changing, from a world where paid-for downloads are dwarfed by illegal file sharing. Meanwhile, new services like Spotify have taken consumers by storm adding 1m users in a matter of months with no US launch. Streaming music, with social discovery and sharing is now in vogue, but can it survive?

The folding of ad-funded music providers such as SpiralFrog and Ruckus, highlight the question of whether these business models are viable. The agency world meanwhile struggles to make the jump from old-school radio ads to the bells and whilstles offered by these streaming services. And what are the implications and opportunities for marketers?

With licensing fees that favour subscription (8% rev share or 40p per subscriber) over ad-funded models (10.5% rev share or 0.085 per play), is there any mileage in advertising anyway? If listeners have to dip into their pockets for streaming services, will the lure of illegal file sharing increase?

Join the discussion as we explore the future for streaming audio services.

PANEL:
Dave Haynes - UK Manager, SoundCloud
Dom Hodge - Associate Director, Frukt Music
Helienne Lindvall - Journalist, The Guardian
Jon Mitchell - Sales Director, Spotify
Further panelists tbc.

CHAIR: Steve Bowbrick

(Complimentary drinks and snacks will be served)

TIMINGS:
6pm doors open for drinks & networking. Discussion starts 6.30pm sharp. Debate ends 8.30pm - drinks and networking continue until 11pm.

It features an egalitarian, community-driven format in which presentations are designed and delivered by participants.

Folks who attended last year's InfoCamp said...

"Amazing diversity and enthusiasm. I felt like I was part of a community of passionate professionals."

"I needed a break from the rules and restrictions of the domain I work in and just explore ideas and concepts. InfoCamp totally did that for me."

"I felt much more at ease presenting at InfoCamp than I have anywhere else - the participants were amazing: they asked questions, made comments/discussion, were interested and friendly - in short, IT WAS AWESOME!"

July 16-19, 2009
Detroit, Michigan

The 11th AMC will advance our visions for a just and creative world. It will be a laboratory for media-based solutions to the matrix of life-threatening problems we face. For the past 10 years, we have evolved our definition of media, and the role it can play in our lives – from zines to video-blogging to breakdancing, to communicating solidarity and creating justice. Each conference builds off the previous one and plants the seeds for the next. Ideas and relationships evolve year-round, incorporating new networks of media-makers and social justice organizers. The 2009 AMC will draw strength from our converging movements to face the challenges and opportunities of our current moment.

Being a great designer or developer is only half the battle. You also need to be able to promote and sell your services, unfortunately there is little advice online about how to do this effectively.
The first part of this workshop will examine ways to promote your services, discuss effective approaches when responding to client briefs and improve your presentational skills for that crucial pitch.
