- Me again.... Two blogs in a day, wow! A client of mine may be looking for a PR company but they have a really limited budget. Who do you know who is "worth their money", flexible on pricing etc? Now, I do know of a few PR companies here on Ecademy, so I hope I'm not offending them by putting a general blog on rather than contacting them directly, but I've never used any of them personally, I don't know what is important to look out for in PR, and I'm looking more for a general tip. |

- While the recording industry is adapting to the Digital Age, it won't win the download war until it cuts the price of tunes online [Business Week: Technology] '-- The big record labels deserve credit for finally pulling their heads out of the sand after years of pretending that file-sharing services would disappear. But they need to go one step further. The harsh reality of the Internet Age is that the industry will forevermore be competing against free, pirated music. If it doesn't slice digital prices to around 50 cents, the market will likely never go mainstream. |
