註釋"Is there too much music? There has never been so much music available to so many for so little cost, and the availability of video isn?t far behind. The ubiquitous iPod, the mobile phone, in-car entertainment and the portable computer mean that we can tailor-make our own audiovisual environments, wherever we are. In the home, on the street, in the mall and on the beach, personalised music is anywhere and everywhere. So why are music companies suing their customers? Why is there a panic in the mobile phone industry? Why are so many people afraid of noise? This book looks at the spectacular growth in the availability of music, the ways in which the traditional music industry has fought to retain its control, and the ways in which the rest of us ? that's anyone who composes, arranges, performs, samples, remixes, playlists, and just plain listens to music ? use music in this age of abundance."--Publisher's website.
