"Apple may already be winning the war over streaming, we just don't know it yet. And part of the reason is that streaming and downloading are slowly becoming the same thing. Because whether a song started as a download or not, paid or otherwise, may simply be a trivial detail for tomorrow's music fan."

Adam Allison's curator insight, May 13, 10:20 PM

Its amazing to see how much time people are spending listening to music. Even more so than thier own productivity or social networking. Wow I think its amazing that these tools can bring it to the forefront of the mind. Although is it conveying music or "mixtapes" or "cover tunes." I have a hard time finding whats new and music to what some one sampled.

Pitchfork Teams with Intel for Interactive Music Games | Music business | Scoop.it

""Interactive” is an overused buzzword, but it’s also an actual thing that means something. In the case of music, it can mean all sorts of things from jumping up and down, to playing an iPhone guitar, to playing videogames that go along with the music. In pursuit of that last element, Intel has opened its deep pockets to allow Pitchfork to choose its favorite songs for which Kill Screen will make interactive music videogames."

Adam Allison's curator insight, May 13, 10:14 PM

The shift has brought to life the fact that less people are about the art ofthe album and more people just want singles. Contributing to the portion that the art of making music is dying and music is becoming to commercialized and processed. However some people still want to hear great music and use these tools to seek it out.
