As a discovery tool, the Web never ceases to amaze. Last night, my brother twigged me on to a cool new music site called 20ltd.com. Here’s the concept, which is definitely different: the site offers 20 items at a time. When those products sell out, that’s it, they’re gone – just like shopping at traditional store. So what you’ve got is a cool supply-demand-scarcity combination featuring really great music. The silver-lining is even if you don’t buy anything, you still get to listen to the music, which we did for hours. I hope the new U.S. streaming music royalty regime doesn’t kill it!
Did you notice the prices! All they have to do is sell one thing and the royalties on music are covered for a year or two.
No, I didn’t do that but will check it out. The jukebox, however, is pretty neat.
