A completely revised and updated edition to the definitive guide to music business. This is the third edition of this book about the business of the Australian music industry. So much has changed in the five years since the last edition: Majors have merged, even disappeared entirely; business models and practices have changed to take into account the demands of new and evolving technologies; and the Copyright Act has been through one of its greatest periods of reform for more than a quarter of a century. This book will guide you through every aspect of building a music career in Australia. It identifies the most common potential problems and offers practical solutions based on long legal experience.
