You do AC / you will DC

Poor ol` AC/DC. Although never planned to sell their new album online,… well: they surely will not have to. 400.000 Whole Lotta Rosies downloaded a leaked copy through BitTorrent. Black Ice will be heard. Everybody still loves Angus…for free.

All together now: hulu

Steve Jobs proudly announced Apple being the largest competitor in music download business last week. And he confirmed NBC being back in iTunes, where the business is. It may vanish a little bit as soon as MySpace has arrived with its new media download service. One partner will be…tatatata…NBC.

I still cannot believe how MTV lost its pool position in the 90ies to grab the whole business and connect it with its branding. Too much Cocaine and too many parties dumbs your brain. At least, it would have been more abvious than a computer company taking over the business.

 

Adding: Napster , who could have won the game es well, has been taken over by Best Buy for 127.000.000 USD. That is slightly more than US-instment banks loose in shares value in an average minute these days.
