The original 2007 e-book offshoot of New Music Strategies
About the Book
This is the original 20 Things e-book, first published as a free download from the New Music Strategies website in 2007.
It's presented here for you unchanged, other than the fact that you can now choose to have it in Kindle or iBooks format. It's still free, if you want it to be. But you can also pay.
There are also multiple versions and translations of the book available here.
THERE IS A NEWER BOOK, which brings everything in here up to date. That one's called 'Music In The Digital Age' and you can download it here.
