The NMPA's new agreement with Universal Music Group states that they will let publishers collect some of the money Universal makes through ads on music videos. The deal dates back to 2008 and it gives publishers 15% of the revenue collected through ad placements. The Verge is an American technology news website operated by Vox Media. The website launched on November 1st, 2011 and they publish news, feature stories, product reviews, consumer electronic news, and podcasts. Although they've only been around for 10 years I do believe they are a reliable source for news and anything technology related.

So now that the music world is done discussing (yet still, at times, freaking out over) profound changes to their industry, it's back to business as not-so-usual. Part of that new normal is a first-time demand to serve the needs of successful bands that no longer have record labels running the show. Among those is merchandise distribution.

When Google bought YouTube for $1.65bn in 2006, there were plenty of doubters. That price is looking pretty good now, though: Citi analyst Mark Mahaney has predicted that YouTube’s 2012 revenues will top $3.6bn. A figure which in his words, is “likely 50% greater than Yahoo!’s Display Advertising total and right-in-line with Netflix’s total subscription revenue. We really doubt whether most investors realize how big/important YouTube has become.”

I'm at the band's West End studio in Toronto, and Metric is reacting to good news. They've just found out that their single Youth Without Youth had debuted at No. 1 on Mediabase Canadian Alternative Radio Airplay chart – the first time that feat has been accomplished. Much jubilation, naturally. And then singer Emily Haines has a second thought on the achievement: “What does it even mean?” she asks. It's a good question, one for which I have no answer. What I can say is what the chart-topping probably means – that someone at Metric Music International, the band's own label, did their job. MMI , as you might guess, is in the business of Metric music. And, apparently, business is good.
