| Description: | "Music is spiritual. The music business is not." -Van Morrison Rock and roll used to be a way for people to stick it to the Man. Is that still possible in today's highly corporatized and profit maximizing world? Does Ticketmaster facilitate easy ticket sales, or does it use its market power to crush competition? Do intellectual property rights matter in the digital era? And how has technology affected the way musicians create their work and how we experience it? This course will study the popular music industry from an economics and business perspective. 皇冠足球比分_澳门皇冠体育-在线|平台@ will look at how music is made, performed, and sold, and examine how musical creativity is affected by the business of music. 皇冠足球比分_澳门皇冠体育-在线|平台@ will also study how music media, technology, and musical venues shape and influence musical form and expression.
