Jac Holzman is the founder of Elektra Records, which he founded all the way back in 1950. Holzman has seen many changes in the music industry and he has been able to adapt at all stages amazingly well.
As Elektra prepares to celebrate 60 years of discovering, making, recording and distributing music, Holzman takes a look back at the advent of digital music technology and a look forward into how new artists can market themselves online.
After spending months in public beta and lots of changes to the ad supported music service, We7 is about to launch out of beta with a bang.
We7 have launched with a “Big Listen” campaign. This new service has some great new features including Free on-demand, unlimited access to full tracks and albums, “Search, Click & Play”, A ‘Celestial Jukebox’ with several million track, ‘Play Anywhere’ – a link and play system for blogs and websites, Users can create playlists, share with friends and buy mp3′s, Payments to rights owners and artists.
The first thing you will notice with the new site is that they have a completely new design. Other new additions include a Magazine, Blog and a much improved list of advertisers. Im sure we will be hearing a lot more from We7 in 2009!
