Da fällt zweierlei auf: Die Erlöse beim CD-Verkauf sind gesunken, gleichzeitig die Einnahmen, die Musiker bei Live-Konzerten erzielen, gestiegen. Bleibt es bei der gegenwärtigen Entwicklung, wird das aus Gigs erlöste Geld im kommenden Jahr erstmals die aus dem Verkauf von Musik stammenden Gewinne übersteigen, zumindest in Großbritannien.
Die Wiedergeburt eines mittelalterlichen Geschäftsmodells: Musiker verdienen Geld mit Musik machen und nicht mit dem Verkauf von Datenträgern.
Dear Schimmel,
I sincerely apologize for intruding into privacy by contacting through this means. Please understand me and give this letter your attention as it is in good faith. I am Stephen Adzida a personal financial adviser to the Late Mrs. Olga Schimmel. (a deceased citizen of your country, who has same last name with you) She was a contractor providing Heavy duty road construction and industrial equipment to many companies in Africa, before her untimely death in a car accident with her husband, their only child and their family members in February 2006. They were all returning from a weekend holiday and they all perished in the car accident. I am contacting you to assist receive the huge deposit of fund she left in a financial house over in Republic of Togo, since you have the same last name with her and I will process the release of this deposit to you. To clarify further, she has this huge deposit of money valued at (US$15,200,000) - Fifteen Million Two Hundred Thousand US dollars) in a bank and this bank has written to me as her financial adviser, asking that I provide any member of her extended family or relative in order for the bank to release this funds to the relative otherwise they will confiscate the funds as unclaimed. I tried unsuccessfully to locate any relatives through many means for the past 3 years, as all efforts to locate or trace any relative has been unsuccessful due to the fact there was no record in all her documents since she with the husband child and their mothers and families members. We have even tried through the paid adverts and media without success and the bank wants to confiscate funds and I decided to contact you to help receive the money for our own benefits. All I need is your cooperation to receive the funds and I will process the release of the funds to you as a relative and within 10 days, this money will be paid to you, and then we will divide the money equally between you and I. Arrangement for the payment has been secured and everything will be done legally.
