Muxtape is dead? or "sorting out problems with the RIAA"

Muxtape was another service that allowed people to upload and share streaming versions of their music library (10 tracks max I think). Cool idea, nicely done, but been done before, been sued before, been killed before. So this is just what happened to Muxtape a few days ago, see below. We all knew this was coming but... when will the labels ever learn? This is your AUDIENCE. Your USERS. Your LIFE BLOOD.

u need to talk to all the labels...they are seriously, seriously lost. I just recently went to visit an A&R at Interscope and they are literally clueless as to what is going on out here....talk about running in place on a mouse wheel yo.

Trends from the 2008 Mobile World Congress (Accenture Report): customer centric convergence Accenture has been publishing some pretty good reports lately, the latest one has a review of the 2008 3GSM show and the most essential trends from there. Here are the high-lights: We live in a three-screen world—interacting with our televisions, computers and mobile devices—and consumers will increasingly expect content to flow seamlessly across all three. Accenture believes the next evolutionary phase is something they call customer-centric convergence. That means being guided—with every technology or service—by a single, overarching imperative: to produce products and services that encompass, complement and dovetail with every element of the customer's wants, needs and lifestyle.
