How Music Got Free premieres June 11th exclusively on Paramount+.
Uncover the secrets behind the crime we all committed. From executive producers Marshall “Eminem” Mathers, LeBron James, Maverick Carter, Paul Rosenberg and Steve Stoute and produced by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television/Telepictures in association with SpringHill, Interscope Films, and Shady Films, How Music Got Free details the fascinating, and often funny, inside story of the technology-driven disruption that changed music during the late-90s and early-2000s. File-sharing technology, combined with the insatiable demand for new music, created both the means and the motive for millions of young people to participate in outright theft - and be celebrated for it.
From New York City, to Los Angeles, to the small factory town of Shelby, North Carolina, the two-part series features the quirky genius of the heretofore-unknown “pirates,” the drama of the FBI investigations and convictions, and the frontline accounts of music’s biggest artists and executives. An unbelievable story of cunning, illegality, celebrity, and innovation, these are the events that changed the music industry forever. Narrated by Method Man, the series features interviews with Eminem, 50 Cent, Timbaland, Jimmy Iovine, Rocsi Diaz, Rhymefest, Steve Stoute and more.

Spotify seems like a worse model for artists. Doing your own marketing is a lot of work. Labels were greedy, which led to the collapse of the industry, but the public now is complacent with a model that allows them to benefit from something that takes advantage of and abuses artists. It's not necessarily better now, it almost feels worse. And few value ownership of music now, or the value of a complete album, not designed to be cut up into individual tracks for maximizing streams and streaming profits.

From the moment a piece of music was put on a website, it would have been uploaded as an audio file type, The record companies should have seen the long road ahead and put 2+2 together. If they had perceived that if music can be heard from anywhere in the world by thr world wide Web as a file type then it was only a matter of time that people could listen to entire collections of music as file types. Then just as we have a plurality of streaming services for production companies (HBO max, Paramount +, Netflix) record companies would have created subscription models for accessing their entire record collections online (an EMI Music subscription etc). But instead record companies continued to sell CDs of albums that had 8-10 tracks for 15.99 - Napster didn't ruin the record industry, record companies failed to see the road ahead and act accordingly. Napster did exactly what the moment asked for ahead or the curve. Instead of record labels dominating the streaming services they are subservient to Spotify and Apple Music

@Ocelot006 22 дня назад

How would that have stopped piracy? ‘Oh I’m not gonna steal this music if I know I can pay for a subscription instead!’

@NKWTI 27 дней назад

Basically, I don’t see any answer other than Steve Jobs, he’s the one that went to all record companies and said basically “I can get fans to pay for music, but there’s just no convenient way digitally yet, and I believe they actually WANT to buy it” and pitched them signing on to allow it in the iTunes store, because of him and the iPod to facilitate it in a way that was more robust than previous mp3 players, this eventually lead to the concept of streaming for a fixed price being developed way down the road.

@joeybaseball7352 21 день назад

Nobody wanted to pay for music, if they could get it for free. And young people certainly didn't. But a lot of older people didn't know how to use napster. And they also didn't want to get sued, or get a virus. The record companies were extremely litigious. And they were even suing children for hundreds of thousands of dollars. Ridiculous.

@gadget00 10 дней назад

The problem with Jobs was that he and Apple were “not” part of the record industry, and that meant he was “getting a cut” out of the business he was never supposed to be involved in the first place. Record executives budged and accepted paying him 30% per song bought in iTunes and that made people pirate “less”, but they still made a lot less money than in the LP/CD days. Then other tech companies offered the same deal but for “streaming”, you're not even selling anything now just getting pennies per “listen”. Thats why we don’t have “Michael Jackson” -level global scale artists anymore; they just can’t afford that level of marketing and outreach. Greed made the record industry shoot themselves in the foot; if they owned the technology the would have ended up better. They should have bought Napster imho

@gadget00 10 дней назад

@@joeybaseball7352 I agree though; but shrinking the record industry won't translate to people coming to Christ. It's a different kind of topic.

I get you, but it's a different problem; the Gospel has to be preached whether the record industry is big or small

I think if folks felt DLing was actually hurting the artists they wanted to support, they would not have not it to the extent they did. As it was, the artists were barely getting paid anyway.

Buddy you could buy individual tracks digitally a few years after Napster came out. Any cost other than free would be too much if people can pirate the content easily.

@micperez819 24 дня назад

Exactly, so many artists back then had a career off 1 or 2 good songs. You would buy an album off the single while the rest of the album was trash. Before youtube and file sharing you didn’t know if the rest of the album was good until you purchased it. It was common to get duped off of 1 single

Lots of good paying jobs now and during the early 2000s Polygram offered coveted jobs with great pay and benefits. The two employees interviewed were temporary employees who probably had nothing to offer to become permanent employees. As for Dell, I am sure he was making good money at the time since Polygram believed in him and moved him up the ranks into management. But greed is an addictive drug. And after all, this whole story is about greed from the industry and the criminals that stole from Polygram. The facts of the documentary may be correct but like all news/media, it is told with a slant to bring about the desired emotions.

Great book; seems that this show is going to go deeper into the artist perspective which i am down to see since the book mainly covers the pirates, executives, law enforcement, and engineers (but with a budget/documentary now the artists can actually share their side)

@meladgoat 29 дней назад

there has already been countless documentaries covering this. acdc i belive was the 1st ones to sue napster. it would have made more sense for them to be here

@sonicextremities9570 28 дней назад

@@meladgoat they might be, i mean its just a trailer; this is going to def go more into the creation of the mp3 format though, not just piracy

@sonicextremities9570 28 дней назад

if it doesnt id be surprised, im figuring this is an adaptation of the book with a few additions

@themeanlesbeann 15 дней назад

I still buy the music of the artists who I love and wanna support. Everyone else I can just come right here to youtube and it's free. Record companies had their time but that's over.

Also, most people don't know how hacking or music leaks work, so I think its hilarious to blame the public for consuming free music that was placed in front of them when you should be blaming the handful of hackers that are responsible for leaks.

@One21Jiggawatts 12 дней назад

we no longer buy 2 cds a month at $20 a disc and rent 5 videos a week for $10, but we now pay $100 for internet access plus $15 for music subscriptions and about $10 per streaming service. I'd say the consumers lost in the end.

@benjaminvillarreal1499 7 дней назад

Except the Internet isn't just for music. The Internet opens your entire world up if you use it correctly. You can't use the budget for Internet alongside the budget for entertainment. It's a necessary utility in today's world. Also you don't need personal Internet to use a music streaming service. Mobile service exists.

@Eddierath 28 дней назад

After Napster it was a wrap bro... I was ripping like a mad man, but I would still purchase the original albums to show my love.. but I think the value of the rips out weighed the value of the originals. 😂 EVERY BODY ATE.... Its like the Robin hood theory. And it's exactly what AI is about to do but worse.

Short Answer: Record Labels got too greedy and didn’t pay their artists enough anyway. There wasn’t enough intelligent entrepreneurs on the artist side to figure a way to use their music to their advantage.

Used to get CD's all the time in the 1990's, early 2000's. Haven't bought a 💿 since 2008. It's easier for people to just download 🎶 online, instead of spending $15 - $20+ for a 💿at a music store.

@surfntrucks 26 дней назад

The industry couldn't collectively unify on digital rights management. People owned their CDs. Let people own their digital versions of songs and allow them to resell that song at market value. Allow residuals on each sale.
