| Abstract: | In the rapidly emerging market for information goods, a key strategic issue is control of content. For example, it is rare for a week to go by without some news of another technological advance, legal development, or business realignment that has its roots in the development of the MP3 open standard for audio compression/decompression. It has been convincingly argued that the Internet, in particular the MP3 standard, is changing the music industry. The development of the MP3 open standard for audio-video compression, the ready availability of free software for MP3 encoding and playback of digital music, and the ease with which MP3 files are transported across the Internet combine to create a large and growing threat to the recording industry. This threat is manifested in both legitimate uses of MP3 compression for electronic-distribution of music, and what is commonly referred to as Internet piracy, involving violation of music copyrights. |
