Discount Tickets Available To SF MusicTech
TechDirt Nov 03 09On December 7th in San Francisco, there will be the next SF MusicTech Summit, which is a great event that I've been to a few times before. It really does a great job covering technology and business models that are impacting the music industry in a very positive, productive way. I've had some of the best conversations about the industry with folks at that event. I'll be there again, taking part on a panel, and the organizers have agreed to let Techdirt readers have a 15% discount on tickets if ordered through our site. I hope to see you there.Permalink | Comments | Email This Story Full story...
