 | | Record companies claim that this standard avoids conflicts of interest, makes the audit process cheaper for the artist - as the auditor's time will be minimized - and the company's royalty accounting process will not be held up. |  | | The proverbial "list" seems limited to a small cartel of accountants and financial managers who "understand the way the record business works." The auditor can not be simultaneously auditing the record company for any other artist or any other record company. |  | | The panel, held this past Tuesday, was assembled to entertain arguments as to whether legislation might be necessary to keep major record labels honest when reporting to their artists the amount of money earned on their exclusive record contracts. |

 | | The independents' loss of income from the elimination of even a small number of sales can be the difference between whether much independent music is recorded or not. |  | | Although the amount of money may seem insignificant at the time you are getting it for free, it can mean the difference in a musician's ability to pay rent or face homelessness. |  | | In the end, the consumer suffers from illegal downloading because proper funding will not be available to cover the cost to produce that recording. |

 | | Consistent with the criticism of the industry, part of the response to file sharing should be lowering CD price. |  | | First, with a linear relationship between quality and customer value, record labels do not increase profit by introducing a second product. |  | | Second, when the relationship between quality and value is unequal across customer segments the opportunity for a profitable Internet music service is quite narrow. |

 | | You don’t need to be an economist to see that the year-on-year decline of record sales since 2000 is linked to an increase in sales of CD burners and broadband subscriptions over the same period. |  | | An established artist could sell their CDs over the internet – without the companies’ marketing muscle, they would sell fewer units but the profits would be, in Barfe’s words, “much, much higher”. |  | | Thanks to a latter-day “mergers merry-go-round”, there are now only four major record companies in the world. |
