That's right. The end of music downloads. Axel, some may think you're only fooling yourself, but you could actually be right. At least, the end of downloads for MOR music may occur soon. 
But educated music lovers are keepers: vinyl diggers, mp3 storage maniacs... music download will remain an elite thing.

Digital Music News - One Little Problem With the Whole 'Streaming Saved Sweden' Thing... | Independent Music and Digital Music Industry | Scoop.it

If streaming saved Sweden from a precipitous sales oblivion, why isn't the same thing happening in other countries?  Here's one reason: streaming just isn't as big or important in other countries, and is less a percentage of broader digital consumption.

Pierre Priot's curator insight, February 7, 4:45 AM

If streaming is eating the download in Sweden + France, it fails to do so in bigger markets, leaving room for future US/worldwide players (such as iTunes Match).

What the Music Business Can Learn From the Gaming and Gambling Industries

What the Music Business Can Learn From the Gaming and Gambling Industries | Independent Music and Digital Music Industry | Scoop.it

"When it comes making money, the music industry – from labels, to artists, managers, promoters and venues – is stuck in the past. While the industry has embraced digital technology for production and distribution, almost everyone still insists on selling albums and songs. And while the industry continues to plod forward with its model of selling music "products," fans have moved on. They want music for free, but are willing to pay for music 'experiences.'"

Webgrrl's curator insight, February 5, 4:14 AM

I am a Minnow! ~ First, artists and labels should get comfortable with the fact that some people aren't likely to pay for music, instead relying on radio, YouTube, downloads from friends, etc. But these 'customers' (minnows) are important, because without them, you cannot attract dolphins or whales. Their sheer number means they can support an artist in an important, non-monetary way: influence.
