Jason Soares: Music and File Sharing

Producers Notes:

Exploring another side of the information exchange debate, artist Jason Soares shared his thoughts on music file sharing in a wide ranging conversation taped at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library.

The issue of how people choose to support artists and what constitutes a fair price for music were discussed. It is clear the rise of internet technology and saturation of the music market have created an environment where assigning value to digital media is more complex than ever before. Our conversation illustrates the many views on access, possession, value of digital music today. Photo. Jennifer Mckay
