[QUOTE]Hopefully, this analysis - and there’s more on the nuts and bolts of our method below - sheds some factual light on the claims and counter-claims that are paranoically sweeping across the music industry establishment, not least that [URL="http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/guest_contributors/article6836024.ece"]put forward by the singer Lily Allen[/URL] in this paper recently - [URL="http://www.bpi.co.uk/digital-music/article/online-faqs.aspx"]and the BPI[/URL] - that artists are losing out as a result of the fall in sales of recorded of music.
The most immediate revelation, of course, is that at some point next year revenues from gigs payable to artists will for the first time overtake revenues accrued by labels from sales of recorded music. [/QUOTE]
