New Guy at EMI Talks to PaidContent
Ex-Googler and new chief at EMI, Douglas Merrill talks to Paidcontent.
Two quotes I liked:
The first principle is simple: Fans want to experience art and artists want to create. What the roles of the music labels are in connecting artists, helping artists create, to fans, helping fans experience, I think it’s TBD
“We need to question everything.” He also brings something from Google that may seem a little alien to some in the music business: the idea that not all experiments have to pay off in direct monetary terms but may add value to the experience in other ways—and a different kind of payoff.
