Burning the Candle at Both Ends
Yes I grabbed this straight from /. so don't flame me...
A very interesting article in today's
New York Times on how home studios are breaking the
stronghold of recording companies on music production.
Nowadays, anyone with some talent, a PC and a couple of peripherals and good
mikes can produce music which would have required spending weeks in an
expensive professional recording studio five years ago. Only recording companies
could pay those expenses. So, the same way Napster and the Net at large have
already seriously eroded their monopoly on distribution, are home studios the
other (unsung) heroes of the war against BMG, EMI, Sony and altars?
