His presentation during the seminar is entitled “Lessons from the Music Industry.” The music industry has seen turbulence as digital distribution and digital piracy have disrupted traditional models. Fortunately farsighted individuals had provided the industry with identifiers and e-commerce infrastructure. How well have these been exploited? This presentation will examine the question and identify lessons for the photo sector.
