The document discusses the author's love of music and frustration with the high costs of purchasing and accessing it legally. The author spends over $500 per year on music through buying CDs and mp3s but still feels the prices are too high. The author argues for a streaming music service that would allow unlimited access to millions of songs for a low monthly fee, which could generate billions of dollars in revenue while making both music lovers and artists happy. The author believes this business model of widespread music streaming is inevitable.

1. Why i
DFSDF

2. Hi, I’m an ordinary guy…
Not a criminal

4. ALL KINDS OF MUSIC

5. I still have over 100 CDs

6. AND A

7. I discover more than 500 new songs ever year

8. I download most of it to my iPhone
But don’t keep them all

9. …and take them to go where ever
I like to listen
to them when ever

10. For that I must pay
Over $500 each year
That’s $40/month
…too much
for so little

11. I can’t afford
that

12. I DOWNLOAD
because

13. The price is too high

15. I buy mp3’s
To support the
independent
artists.

16. and I go to concerts

17. I’ve maxed my
entertainment budget

18. $40.00 or more
per month is too
much
so I say…

20. greedy bands
• The greedy ones
• And the one that do it for love of music

21. How about an alternative?

22. Imagine if we could get access to:
an unlimited
repository of
music

23. and listen to any song we wanted
anytime

24. With No Restrictions

25. all for a low monthly fee

26. That can easily reach
30,000,000 subscribers
= 8% of United States population
= 1% of the developed world’s population
= 0.4% of world’s population

27. per year

28. Chart of the day
=$3.6b

29. artists get
Loyalty based
on what
people choose
to listen to and
share

30. Not based on
what mass media
chooses to
play on air

31. music lovers are happy…

32. … and musicians
keep playing

33. What do you say?

35. This way of sharing and
listening to music is
inevitable, it’s just a matter
of when
