Abstract

This paper explores the impact of the digital revolution on the development of the music industry. It analyses the conditions of the commercialization of music in an industry structure with, and without, a copyright regime. The paper's main concern is with the relationship between artists and publishers. The particular influence of the continental European, especially Austrian, copyright regime on the contractual design of publishing contracts and the music industry structure, and their differences from US norms, is discussed.
