The End of Control and the Future of Content (slideshow) - tell me what you think!

By Gerd Leonhard. Greetings MidemNet blog readers, and all past and who-knows, future Midem participants. I held this presentation, below at the Google HQ in San Francisco in March - shortly after MIDEM 2009. Many of my thoughts about the music industry found their way into this speech so I figured I should share this with you again. You can download the PDF via Slideshare (follow the link below), and you can watch the video here (note: Google had some tech issues when we recorded this so the quality of the lighting is not so good).

In any case, I would like know what your thoughts are on what I am presenting here so please comment below or ping me via Twitter (which is much preferred) or my new Futerati.com site.
