Item description from seller

NOW A MAJOR NEW DOCUMENTARY SERIES What links Taylor Swift to a factory worker?Kanye West to a German engineer?Beyonce to a boardroom mogul?Theyve all changed the face of the music business, in the most unexpected ways.How Music Got Free is the incredible true story of how online piracy and the MP3 revolutionised the way our world works, one track at a time.This brilliant book tells you exactly how the perfect storm that forever changed the way we consume music took shape. Like many great works of investigative journalism it makes it clear that this is one of those stories you think you know. Until you realise you dont John Niven, The SpectatorReads like an underworld crime story concise and very funny The most remarkable thing about Witts book is that virtually none of the names is familiar Witt finds unlikely heroes in unlikely places New Statesman. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Store description

In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
