A New Directory For Music Industry Education

“People considering a career in the music industry can now access a comprehensive, online reference directory of academic and vocational opportunities for 2009/10 launched – the Music Education Directory at www.bpi-med.co.uk.”

“The Directory is also an integral part of www.creative-choices.co.uk, linking it with broader careers advice and guidance for the music industry.”

So the BPI have funded a new edition to the online music directory and here’s an article on it.

What should they have done? (doesn’t really matter)

“1999 saw the debut of Napster – the net-based software that let people share their music collections. It started a storm of change in the music industry and here Geoff Taylor, chief executive of the BPI, reflects on what has happened in the last 10 years.” Read the original article from Geoff Taylor here

And some more from BBC news on his comments with a response from Jim Killock, head of the Open Rights Group over here

But since that was all a bit thin, here‘s a more interesting articles with some relevant links.
