Pandora

CMU’s Andy Malt and Chris Cooke review the week in music and the music business, including Pandora’s “unprecedented” licensing deal with Sony/ATV, MegaUpload’s lawyers finally defending rather than delaying in the long drawn out extradition case, UK Music’s ‘Measuring Music’ report on just how much money the music industry is pumping into the UK economy, and a week in the life of the world’s greatest human being Justin Bieber. The CMU Podcast is sponsored by 7digital.
