3. From a marketing perspective,
ignoring mobile is no longer viable.
4. How does the music industry need to react to this?

People w/ mobile devices
~ ¼ of the World population
Music app developers
42,500 music apps in App Store.
Grossing $375m in 2013 (excluding
In-app purchases).
“The Industry”
Digital music stores, labels,
artists, managers, production,
distribution etc.
It must be easy & cost-effective to
consume music on a mobile device.
Think about the whole journey –
including search.
App developers are responsible for
Intelligently monetising their apps
so that every step below them in the
Value chain can win big.
6. Think inside apps, and outside apps.
25 million searches for music
are made on Google per month.
~25% of these are made from a
Mobile device.
No one is capitalising on this
opportunity. Google is under
government pressure to improve
music search results. No one’s
providing the result they’re looking for
(hence GPMAA).

we need to ensure that our business models are not a
bottleneck to the rest of the industry.
We need to be creative & intelligent about how we
monetise our assets, learning as much as possible
from those who are doing it successfully.
