Recently in a blog for internet newspaper Huffingtonpost.com, Jeff Price outlined his theory that the declining record business is causing a leveling of the playing field that he is calling 'the democratization of the music industry'. Price is a New York-based music industry veteran, who's spent two decades running his now defunct indie record label Spinart. These days he is taking the indie aesthetic to a whole new realm with his new business model TuneCore. com For Access All Areas Trevor Reekie calls Jeff Price in New York to talk through the politics of self determination in the music world.
