jurek d/flickrHow Do You Get Your Music Fix?
Two weeks ago, Soundcheck asked you to tell us how you get your music. We wanted to know how much money you spend on songs and albums – and where you spend it. We asked you how much you shell out for concerts. Today, we unveil the results of our unscientific poll. Joining us to help dissect the results is Eric Garland, chief executive of the online entertainment measurement company BigChampagne.
Five Years After iTunes
In just five years, the marketplace of music consumers has changed dramatically. Today, we unveil the results of our latest Soundcheck poll. Find out how much some of our listeners spend on music every month, where they spend their cash, and whether they spend more or less compared to five years ago. Eric Garland, chief executive of the media-measurement company Big Champagne, joins us to discuss the results -- and how they stack up against national trends.
Check out the results of our poll --- and the responses.
Our blog: John Schaefer on the in-store experience.
Weigh in: How do you get your music fix? Are you a big spender? A "no-spender?"
