From time to time we discuss the business of music on this site. On the following website is a great article about itunes at the cusp of it's 10 year anniversary, and how streaming services like Spotify and Pandora may usurp Apple's industry clout much in the same way Apple did to the CD business (and CDs did to vinyl).
I put "possibly OT" in the thread title because I realize some members may have no interest in the business side of music, but hey it's about music right? Close enough? Definitely no harp specific stuff in the article though.

The guy's a really good writer (well, at least in my opinion), and go figure, this article appears on ESPN, a sports website, where he is a staff writer (though he writes regularly about music).
PS: Lastly, I'm sorry I couldn't get the web address to appear as a direct link, gave it a bit of a try, but gave up. Perhaps a more tech savvy member can do me a solid and link to it here.
over and out
