Digital Nutshell: Issue 4 – MidemNet 2009 Special ~ Digital Music 2.0 Next stop after Las Vegas (as well as a brief stop over in Gibraltar – full analysis of the Online Gaming industry coming soon…) was onto Cannes and the MidemNet digital Music conference – and what could be classed as the Music industrys defining year such as the web was 2 ...

Well here I am on my final day (of 2) at what looks like will be the final MacWorld conference. I say the final, sure the organizers would not agree with me on that one, but if you ask the exhibitors, as I have been doing, publicly all for MacWorld 2010, in private they're not coming back. No Apple at MacWorld doesn't mean too much to these ...

I have kept relatively quiet over the last 18months on this - due to the sensitive nature of what we, at Conchango, have been developing for one of the UK's biggest retailer!

I have talked enough about this topic in various blogs, presentations and events. Sometimes I try to be explicit in the reasoning and other times I add it as a point of reference...

This of course goes against the grain of what I do - as I like to ramble on and on and go off in various tangents (I'm like that when speaking as well :) - but when asked by Miss D & Miss B to ...

  March 2008 will see an unbelievable 45 years pass since the analogue mono release of their debut album on vinyl ''Please Please Me'' So it seems only fitting that the Fab Four's catalogue has the digital treatment and released to the world ''officially'' When this happens what will be the main driver ?
