The discussion will focus on the future of the music industry in the United States. How should content be paid for, and what are the ramifications of technological advancements? How will these technologies affect the music publishing, licensing, and copyright industries? We will explore the role that Google plays as the ‘worlds’ information bank’, and the possibility of new technologies playing more than a subsidiary role in this game given the outcome of the Google Books Settlement. What models are available to us and where are we heading?
