The grand finale of Music Tank's series of Think Tank debates on the digital music market takes place at the MCPS-PRS HQ in London next week, and culture minister Andy Burnham will be on the panel. We plan to heckle him loudly on account of him standing us up when we were doing the CMU-Tube interviews at In The City.
Also on the panel this time round are Will Page, Chief Economist at MCPS-PRS Alliance, Richard Mollett, Public Affairs Director at the BPI, Simon Persoff, Director of Legal & Regulatory stuff for Orange UK and Dan Klein, Media Accounts Director at business and technology consultancy Detica, who will provide the key note speech.
The topic for debate is this: "Two decades after the MP3 was invented, can music rights holders and ISPs find enough common ground to deliver the kind of service that consumers want and that still rewards creators?"
It all takes place on Tuesday, 2 Dec at 6.30pm. Details at www.musictank.co.uk.
