To keep in mind next time you hear another moralistic preach by one of these crooks (notice how this designation instantly comes to our minds when we think of record company execs?) who, you know, claim they "do it all for the artists."
I'm CEO of an online trade publishing firm in the marketing and defense verticals. We try to make news and data digestible and useful in an environment that is more noisy each day. This personal blog mixes my thoughts and interests on politics, business, software, and more, based on my business and personal experiences. Over the years I have posted items that turned out spectacularly wrong, and a few posts that stood the test of times better. Personal views only.
