| Summary: By 2006, the US online and mobile music industries will generate combined revenue of more than $2 billion per year, providing a lifeline for the sinking music industry. "The Economics of Online and Mobile Music" looks at the products that make up online and mobile music -- Internet radio, online music stores, music subscription services and ringtones -- and forecasts how each will grow in the US over the next three years. The report looks at the licensing fees each sector must pay the music industry, and projects the total royalties received by record labels and music publishers. The report also looks at new services that may develop in the mobile music space, and examines the risks facing the online and mobile music sector. |
| The report addresses the following strategic questions: |
- How far will record label income fall due to the continuing slump in US CD sales?
- How far will music publisher income fall due to the fall in US CD sales?
- Can online and mobile music offset the fall in income caused by lower CD sales?
- How big are online music services now, and how large will they become by 2006?
- How popular are ringtones in overseas markets, and will they catch on in the United States?
- What other music services are likely to launch on the mobile platform?
- What must record labels and publishers do to encourage online and mobile music services?
|
