The music industry industry has taken some questionable stances on digital technology over the years. To call it resistant to change probably wouldn't be stepping too far out of line. That's why, as music fans, we love to hear about cases in which the music industry demonstrates forward thinking and proactively constructs policy that takes new technologies and distribution media into account. Maybe it's unfair to paint the entire industry with a single stroke, but if this is true of any part of the industry, it's traditionally been true of the major record labels.The good news is that EMI, one of the big four, is taking some laudable steps to open its vault of music. Along with The Echo Nest, a music intelligence platform whose technology powers a number of music apps from big media companies to indy developers, and EMI have teamed up to create an initiative that will put thousands of its songs and other music-related content (video, photos, and artwork, for example) into the hands of more than 10,000 app developers.
