This report describes a radical but workable solution to the key problem faced by the recorded music industry which is how to distribute music content over the internet in a way that ensures the industry is properly paid.
Amounting to nothing less than a ‘general theory of virtual music’ and a completely new type of music industry, the solution presented here, System-V, offers an expansive, tantalising vision for how the music industry could make a success out of virtual music, even at this late hour.
