Now Playing: Jay-Z's Data-Driven Setlist...

|
Digital Music News: As revenue sources continue to shift, touring is becoming increasingly important. The live performance sector has its own demons, most notably macroeconomic pressures, though the show is a unique experience that is difficult to reproduce. But how can artists maximize that experience by playing the songs that fans want to hear the most? For newer artists, the challenge is getting enough material together to fill a set. But for multi-album, multi-decade artists with long-term, loyal followings, the question becomes more complicated. Fans certainly want the classics; the sing-a-lo |

In fact, In Rainbows was downloaded from unauthorized sources at 10 times the rate of new releases from other top artists. On file-sharing networks, 400,000 copies of In Rainbows were swapped in a week. By the end of the month, the number was more than 2 million. “Frequently, |
Hulu's Backers Bicker as Web Video Soars
| CNET: So what? What does it mean if the studios hobble Hulu? Consumers have watched TV for over half-a-century. They can still go back there. Right? Eric Garland, CEO of Big Champagne, a company that tracks traffic on peer-to-peer sites—where most illegal file sharing occurs—told me recently that consumers are heading online for video entertainment and he doesn’t expect them to return to their traditional viewing habits ever again.
