Music net refrence

This tiny palm sized book is the perfect companion for your laptop on the go or your pc at home when it comes to getting information about music on the net. Covering a variety of subjects, one of the most useful elements is the listing and descriptions of obscure and not so obcure web sites relating to the music biz via the net. This little book clarifies technical infromation in a simplified style so you too can speak computer geek. If you are looking for a cyber community with musical artists being the common thread you will probably be able to find the fan or ant-fan site here. Some of the stuff is pretty funnny even if you are not into bashing others. The ever changing world of e-commerce is explored among other topics and although the cyber biz is changing as rapidly as dot coms go out of business it is an interesting read. If you like to shop for the best prices on your music there is a good site suggested, if you can't remember the name of a song except for a few didies there is a site suggested to help you fill in the blanks and bolla, a title is produced! There is something for every kind of music, from world to country and everything in between.Although the book is several years old most of the information and websites are still valid. A simple yet comprehensive guide to everything(well almost) music on the net. Recommended for people with time on their hands who need direction for music related topics, genres etc on the ever changing net. Cleverly written, the people at Virgin have made an entertaining piece of pulp to accompany you while clicking your way through the net.
