Good morning. Today an investigative report on how thoroughly Live Nation has come to control the Australian live music business. Fees upon fees which are only possible when you control the market. Fans pay more. Artists make less. An eye-opening report. Here are the rest of today’s highlights: - A Revisionist History Of Music File Sharing And The Music Industry Response “The story they want to tell, in an emphatically triumphalist tone, is that the early pirates were David and the music industry was Goliath. But then the industry realized that David was actually pretty cool: All turned out well, and music was solved forever.” – The New York Times
- Portland’s Seismic City Council Election Could Shake Up The Arts In Oregon “Potentially huge changes in the city’s arts funding – canceling the $35 arts tax, for instance, and downgrading the longstanding Regional Arts and Culture Council – make November’s election choices vital for the city’s and even the state’s continued ‘arts’ creative future.” – Oregon ArtsWatch
- Our Brains On Online Reviews “Yes, AI is a problem, and so are human-generated fakes. ‘People do a pretty poor job at discerning a fake review from a real one. It’s essentially a coin flip – studies have shown that shoppers can correctly identify a fake review only half of the time.'” – The Conversation
- Study: Those Who Learn A Second Language Develop More Brain Connections “Scientists found that bilingual individuals have more efficient communication between brain regions, notably between the cerebellum and left frontal cortex.” – Neuroscience News
- Seattle’s Book-It Theatre Rises Again “This new incarnation of Book-It will not be a producing company. They are not hiring a staff or planning a full season. You cannot buy a subscription. They’re starting with one show, a co-production running Oct. 10-20 at Vashon Repertory Theatre. After that? They’re not sure yet.” – Seattle Times
Jump down to see the rest of the stories we collected in the past day, organized by category. See you tomorrow. Doug
