President of the Association of Music Publishers of Japan (MPAJ) and President of Avex Music Publishing Hajime Taniguchi ( Hajime Taniguchi) spoke about the growing digital sales in Japan, and complained about the increase in pirate downloads - but the scale of the country, they are still extremely low in front for him -. association of publishers, the most convenient platform for digital distribution to create. However cited most surprising facts Chairman of the State Committee for the Recording Industry of China Zhang Yanbin, Bill (Bill Yanbin Zang). He said that China's market for paid downloads of about one billion dollars. We have fertile land for music investments and not hide - said Zhang. As in other countries, China, the structure of purchases has changed, almost stopped buying CDs and started buying digital tracks. Annual sales of physical media - is declining. In addition, the sale of "physics" in China, less sales "numbers" 5 times! Oddly enough, bring a sixth of the total sales karaoke rooms. In China, 115,000 companies doing karaoke, open 3000000 karaoke rooms, and all copyright and related fees are added. Proceeds from karaoke twice the revenue from mobile sales. Chinese statistics so impressed by Ulf-Hansen, he even repeated after Zhang's words. Phenomenal "figure" is 5 times higher than the "physics". China realized that if we follow the law of rights, China itself on this win. As a publisher, I'd like to see the revenue from the Chinese market, and a single legal space - said Ulf-Hansen. Top manager of Universal Music Publishing Nozomi Daykuhara (Nozomi Daikuhara) said that the sale of physical media is always a problem with the logistics - it is necessary to wait until the wheels come through FIDEX'om rastamozhat.

In Russia, the door is open, and it opens up even more - he said - it's hard to take the first step. Hajime Taniguchi summed up the debate: "We need new ways to not find with nothing to sell as the case it is necessary to build a business around music piracy exists, perhaps because we are responding to public demand bad.. . "thread" Artist Management "reduced to a discussion about the same turnover. Intermedia founder Eugene Safronov gave detailed design of the figures concert in Russia. He acknowledged that the way to us, but the volume of the concert of the Russian market of several billion dollars, and only in Moscow and St. Petersburg box office performance to win a billion dollars per year, China. But neglecting sales of any media.

In the theme of "Music & Digital. Light can not penetrate other cultures "was chief NEWSmusic.ru Vadim Ponomarev made. In his speech noted that NEWSmusic.ru the most widely read music news own website was because it best meets the needs of readers. In this ad from the music industry almost none existed - Online advertised cars, chewing gum, etc. generates profit maximization in the Russian show-business segment in the concert, but the music media that see money can not, almost all advertising concerts on a barter basis. Funded, in fact, money from music media, or even by the industry in the context, must not finance publishers and promoters.

The concerts are practically the only way to focus on the music and the artists as they were all listening. The head of the Taiwan public information committee PMPO Ed Ian (Ed Yen) noted the importance of the appropriateness of Internet startups. We have many, chosen by YouTube, and not, - he says. - For download song in Taiwan consumers pay 4 cents, it's a little, and many are ready for downloads of works to pay the kind of money. He cites the example of a successful promotion of foreign artists in a foreign language environment, when in England on television showed a film about the Chinese stars, and then a gala concert of Chinese stars was sold 80,000 tickets for a half hour. And vice versa. China has developed rapidly concert business. Invited famous foreign stars, concerts, the style of life of young people.
