Music industry analyst Mark Mulligan has sparked huge debate with a series of posts which explain why music can’t just be free.
His statements won a round of vituperative responses, and the analyst responded to these with a post on his own blog this afternoon.
Mulligan points out that as an active musician and an industry analyst, he (and we agree with him) doesn’t believe artists should be returned to some romantic position as unpaid minstrels travelling from town-to-town in hope of earning a few cents to survive.
