Spotify and Napster.

Spotify:

  • Spotify is a music streaming service which is available for downloading on mac OS X, linux and Microsoft Windows. 
  • The founder and CEO is Daniel Ek.
  • Spotify was introduced to the market at the perfect time as broadband was created and many people were beginning to get smart phones.
  • They stream music from a variety of major independent record labels which include 'the big four'.
  • It was launched in 2008 and by September 2010 it already had around 10 million users.
Napster:
  • Napster is an application which allows which allows people to share music over the internet.
  • The founder was 19 year old Shaun Fanning in 1999.
  • It first became popular in college campuses.
  • In 2001 Napster was shut down by court order due to copyright infringement.
Both of these music providers were important to the music industry as it made it easier for the consumer (us) to source this music and download/stream it from our own homes. 

'The big four' Case Studies.

Below are two powerpoints showing 'the big four' music recording companies in the world. Each of the powerpoints outlines the facts behind the companies as well as the artists they've signed and the other labels that they own. All four of these companies are vertically integrated which is a major factor linked to their success.

Front Cover in progress.


This is my front cover, I like the way it has turned out. However, I do think I will need to go back and make some last minute changes once my contents page has been completed.
The changes i'd like to make -
Change some of the cover lines.
Add the website.

My first double page spread attempt.



This is my first attempt of a double page spread. I asked some of my peers, who would be my target audience what they thought of it. These were their responses:

- Move the image down.
-Make it A3 so that it is just a double page.
-Put the title or quote across both pages so that they are linked.

All of this feedback has been very helpful and I will use this to make my double page spread better.

My first photo shoot

These are a few pictures from my first photo shoot. Most of them will be used on my double page spread and contents page. As there wasn't one that instantly stood out for my front cover, I'm going to take a few more pictures and upload the one that I will use.
