How can an artist make a living in a digital world,
especially a musician? With the RIAA like the
Catholic Church, spending vast amounts of resources
on litigation, and even hinting that they may have to
decrease royalties to artists to cover their costs,
musicians should be thinking about viable
alternatives to the big media company model of
trickledown economics. David Byrne has a thoughtful
piece called
Survival Strategies for Emerging Artists—and
Megastars over at Wired. There's also an
interesting sidebar
conversation between DB and Radiohead's Thom
Yorke on how RH is marketing
In Rainbows,
first as a pay what you wish download, then as a
packaged CD in January.
