Description
Summary:The article investigates the value of music among users and how music is used in social interaction. It elaborates on four modes of music discovery: (i) self-initiated discovery, (ii) social circle discovery, (iii) discovery at music arenas, and (iv) random discovery. These modes are discussed in the perspective of large-scale and small-scale sharing and the article ends with a discussion on future business models for music. Based on empirical findings from a research project carried out by Telenor Research & Innovation (R&I) among Norwegian music users in 2008, the study revealed that music has high emotional and social value and low economic value. The user practices and mindsets elaborated in the article can serve as guiding principles for industry actors venturing into the digital realm.
