Music!

I love music 🎶 ... specially techno and underground.

But this post isn't about my taste in music! It’s about how far we've come in technology in relation to how we enjoy music.

There hasn't been any “disruption” in the music world in the last gazillion years..

what do we have?

Apple Music
MixCloud
SoundCloud (going bust)
YouTube

What else?

As a music lover and a marketer, I'd love to see innovation hit the music industry in a way that changes the way we enjoy, share and love the music we like, whatever the genre is!

Spotify, in my opinion were doing a great job up-till it became too expensive for them and now they’re facing tons of litigations..

Sony Music is a joke.. and specifically in the Middle East !! Their role in the region is at best laughable.

Why can't there be more startups and tech dedicated to Music?

What do you guys think? Are there any music sharing platforms that I'm unaware off?

Recently, I've been watching and "following" a few different companies based on their business models.

The companies I've picked to watch closely all had one thing in common, that was they all sold/offered "traditional" products that nothing to do with the tech world.

The real reason I did this was to try and find which companies/brands were able to embrace the tech solutions we have today incorporated in their business model.

Talking about subscription-based models, we immediately think of companies like Netflix and the likes...

But what about companies that have nothing to do with tech as their CORE business?

2 brands I've looked at that have truly incorporated tech into their "traditional" products...

Shave Club ... these guys have made shaving and men grooming as easy as it can be! Very impressed with their subscription model which allows you to get a full grooming kit and accessories for a minimal monthly fee!! Well done guys and best of luck in all your efforts
Book of the Month ...These guys have taken books to a whole new level. May I dare to say that they've revolutionized the library concept! It's as simple as choose your subscription package, genre of books you prefer and BOOM!!
