Mediapost, Dec 2008: “In more than five years, the RIAA sued or threatened to sue around 35,000 file-sharers,
including one deceased grandmother, teenagers, and single mothers. The one case that went to a jury trial--a lawsuit
against single mother Jammie Thomas--ultimately resulted in a mistrial.
The RIAA admitted that it spent millions prosecuting cases--far more than it recovered in settlements.
Meanwhile, [U.S.] revenue from sales fell to around $10 billion last year from
more than $14 billion in 1998--the year before Napster launched.
So far, the focus on Controlling
Music Online has not resulted
in solid new revenue streams

You don’t have to be a Futurist to see that the current
concept of forcing people into consuming music in a way
that suits us (the industry) better, will not work.
I think we need to review
our assumptions.
Gerd Leonhard Media Futurist
So far, Refusal was fruitless -
It’s time to switch to
Permission

A new Internet-Music License would only be the beginning...
Gerd Leonhard Media Futurist
My proposition
A new Collective License for Music on the Internet
Let’s do what’s right for
Compensation not for Control
Let’s generate future revenues for
the Creators not just the Lawyers
Let’s do what’s right for Social,
Cultural and Business Reasons
