MP4-Attack: Public Enemy gegen Musikindustrie-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Big Industry angelegt hatten, haben ihre neue Single "Swindlers Lust" zum Download freigegeben, eine einzige Attacke auf die Musikindustrie, zumal sie im neuen MP4 Format qualitativ mit CDs mithalten kann. Die Lobbygroups der Musikindustrie versuchen gerade viribus unitis mit Microsoft, Liquid Audio, AOL, Lucent und AT&T dieses freie Musikformat vom Markt zu drängen. Public Enemy's Chuck D. sieht bereits Millionen Indepent Labels in den Sternen stehen. Download http://www.public-enemy.com/mp4/swinlust.html -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Adam Creed SINGAPORE, 1999 JAN 10 ... Public Enemy have released a full length new single directly on to their official Web site for free download by Internet users. "Swindler's Lust" is an attack on corporate money grabbing and single-minded profit seeking, particularly in the music industry and particularly by the use of the courts. The single is also one of the first tracks to be available in the new MPEG layer 4 (MP4) format. The new format is an upgrade to the MP3 format that produces CD-quality music in a compressed file that can be played on a multimedia computer. Public Enemy have had a hard time with MP3 after their parent label Universal forced them to remove samples of tracks from their new album that had been posted on their Web site. Writing on the Public Enemy Web site group member Chuck D criticized the Recording Industry of America (RIAA), Microsoft, Liquid Audio, AOL, Lucent and AT&T initiative to stop MP3 players being distributed and replace it with a proprietary controlled format that could be restricted in distribution. ... Proponents of MP3 claim the industry's concept of copyright in a digital world where bits can be duplicated at no extra cost is outdated and simply a protection of profits and nothing to do with the artists. Many artists have attempted to provide samples of music on their Web sites and have been prevented by the record labels that they have traditionally been required to employ to produce music commercially. Artists have little say in the record company's methods, says Chuck D. "I tell folks all the time, record companies sell records, artists have little to do with that process. Artists just make them and are selected to do so." ... According to Chuck D the new breed of musical artist will make money by expanding the way they perform, with live appearances and full fan contact bringing loyalty and selling records. "Skeptics say that artists will be undercut," says Chuck D. "Wrong, what will happen is that there will be more artists in the marketplace. The day of the demo as we know it is outta here. Now the possibility of 500,000 independent labels will make the majors revise their thinking. .... source http://www.newsbytes.com -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1999-01-11 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
