Abstract (German)

Die "Creative Industries" (CI) gelten als bedeutender Wachstumsbereich großstädtischer Wirtschaftsentwicklung. Im vorliegenden Band geht Andreas Resch der Frage nach, wie sich die Beschäftigung in den Wiener CI tatsächlich im letzten Jahrhundert entwickelt hat. Peter Mayerhofer und Peter Huber analysieren, inwiefern die CI in Wien seit den 1990er Jahren als "Beschäftigungsmotor" fungieren und welche Jobs sie bieten. Abschließend zeigt Philipp Peltz am Beispiel der österreichischen Musikwirtschaft Ansätze zu neuen Formen von "Artist-Entrepreneurship" auf, die sich im Zusammenhang mit aktuellen technologischen und wirtschaftlichen Umbrüchen herausbilden.

Digital Distribution Models Reviewed: The Content Provider’s Perspective (book chapter)

Citation (APA): Peltz, P. (2013). Digital Distribution Models Reviewed: The Content Provider’s Perspective . In Music Business and the Experience Economy (pp. 99-117). Springer Berlin Heidelberg. Abstract Digital distribution has surpassed physical distribution in key markets and will soon be the dominant music distribution model in Australia. Four different business models (free, ad-funded, pay-per-use and subscription-based) and two different music delivery methods (downloading and streaming) currently compete in the market place. The author analyses each distribution model available in Australia and evaluates advantages and disadvantages from the content provider’s perspective. The most striking development is the blurring line between promotion and distribution. Content providers can either lower the barriers to access music in order to facilitate rapid music circulation and create a strong promotional effect to support various revenue streams; or heighten the barriers to acc

Why Theodore W. Adorno would follow Chris Anderson on Twitter (essay)

Introduction At first glance, the reader may wonder what Theodore W. Adorno and Chris Anderson have in common and what that has to do with researching the music industry. On the one hand, a sophisticated German philosopher; a critical theorist of the 20th century; a member of the renowned Frankfurt School and a follower of Karl Marx’s thoughts on capitalism and society. On the other, Chris Anderson, a child of the digital economy, a blog writer, a journalist, a business entrepreneur and, according to The Time 100 , one of the most influential thinkers of the new millennium. Both were (respectively are) critically reflecting the media landscape of their time. In this paper I use the ideas of both thinkers and demonstrate the Mediamorphosis in the wake of technological innovations at the example of the music industry. On the one hand a centralized media system dominated by large media conglomerates, on the other side a democratic media system driven by prosumers. Thes two contrasting m
