This is part 2 of our discussion with Jason Ager. This time, Steve and Jason discuss the business of making a living as a musician and how technology has changed and continues to change the game. Learn about the importance of and increasing scarcity of quality human curation for small artists, how phone culture has changed the live music experience, possible ways to use AR/VR to monetize performances, how Jason uses "pay as you wish" to sell CDs and get a useful market signal, and learn how one artist made a request show both more fun and more profitable by encouraging a bidding war for song selection. This is a fantastic episode you won't want to miss.
