Compensation Not Control Music 2.0 Gerd Leonhard Midem Net 2009
1) The document discusses proposals for a new collective licensing model for music on the internet as an alternative to the industry's past focus on control and litigation against file-sharers. 2) It suggests a system where internet service providers and device makers contribute to a "pool of money" from which rights holders would receive regular revenue shares based on things like a flat fee per user per week. 3) The author argues this could generate billions annually and benefit creators more than the current model, while also being better for social and business reasons by focusing on compensation rather than control.
