This document discusses a proposed music industry cloud model. It includes surveys and statistics about music listening and payment preferences. The proposed model would allow everyone to upload and remix music in the cloud. Artists would be paid based on the number of clicks or streams from users. The goal is for the model to benefit all participants, increase creativity, and be based on a fair payment system where everyone can participate.
