Mayerhofer, P., Peltz, P., & Resch, A. (2008). "Creative industries" in Wien: Dynamik, Arbeitsplätze, Akteure (Vol. 1). LIT Verlag Münster.

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...

Remix Competitions - promising career springboards or just promotion tools? (work-in-progress)

We are working on a paper about remix competitions. If you have ever participated in a remix competition, it would be great if you could participate in our little survey. Thanks a lot! Remix Competition Survey    ( done, we are analysing the results) Here a brief abstract what the paper is all about: Remix competitions have become very popular among aspiring music producers. If established artists like Depeche Mode, 50 Cent or Fatboy Slim call for remixes, up to 1000 and more music producers take the chance to submit their own interpretations of the original tune.

Organisers promote remix competitions as promising career opportunities for unknown artists to get a foot in the door of the professional music business. Participants, on the other hand, often accuse the organisers to exploit the artist’s dream and use remix contests only as a promotional tool. In this regard the prese...
