Comments on: EMI: Don't Worry, We've Got Plenty of Money http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/20081107/emi-dont-worry-weve-got-plenty-of-money/ by Peter Kafka Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:52:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: David H Deans http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/20081107/emi-dont-worry-weve-got-plenty-of-money/comment-page-1/#comment-225 David H Deans Sat, 08 Nov 2008 13:22:38 +0000 http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/?p=789#comment-225 The last innovation from the traditional record labels was the DualDisc introduction in 2004. Granted that effort was a disappointment. Regardless, IMHO the industry needs to invest in more digital media experimentation. I received early review copies of the first DualDiscs and I was optimistic that the format had some potential for growth. There is still a retail market opportunity for creatively packaged digital media that can compete with online downloads. Granted, it's a much smaller niche than the prior music industry model. But, I believe that it's a profitable niche worthy of further exploration. David H. Deans GeoBrava Media The last innovation from the traditional record labels was the DualDisc introduction in 2004.
