      Rhapsody is awesome, but you should look into grooveshark.com. It follows the 'freemium' model discussed in class and has advertisements but I would like to hear what other people's experience is with it or any insights to how they make money.
  • Imagine if prices declined the further you went down the Tail, with popularity (the market) effectively dictating pricing. All it would take is for the labels to lower the wholesale price for the vast majority of their content not in heavy rotation; even a two- or three-tiered pricing structure could work wonders. And because so much of that content is not available in record stores, the risk of channel conflict is greatly diminished. The lesson: Pull consumers down the tail with lower prices.
