Overview
Music assists record labels, retailers, music media and youth marketers in planning digital music strategies. Downloads, subscription services and ring tones are where the growth is but they haven't compensated for CD sales declines. With extensive online consumer and teen surveys and detailed customer segmentation analysis, Music also helps marketing executives target customers online and use the Internet as an efficient platform for marketing music products and programming. It balances coverage across digital distribution, cannibalization/piracy, Internet promotion, audience cultivation and brand marketing.
