BitTorrents Matt Mason On Rethinking The Music Industry Business Model: The Hustle Is Changing
It's been a big year for BitTorrent, said Matt Mason, the company's executive director of marketing. Mason and his team have been working with big names like DJ Shadow and Tim Ferriss to figure out how to turn filesharing into a source of revenue.I met with Mason (who also wrote The Pirate's Dilemma) last week to discuss how BitTorrent can work with the music industry and the company's plans for next year. Mason joined BitTorrentalmost exactly a year ago, and since then, the company has run a total of 16 artist campaigns. It hasn't found the One True Solution to monetizing music yet, and Mason said the answer won't come in the next few months, but the next quarter "will get us closer."Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/d8UQJUN9vMA/
