J.P. Morgan's hunt for Afghan gold - Fortune Management

Villagers assembled for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the gold mine in Qara Zaghan. The U.S. government estimates that minerals worth nearly $1 trillion lie beneath Afghanistan's soil. FORTUNE -- Qara Zaghan, Afghanistan: The four Black Hawk helicopters sweep down on this remote river valley, flying fast and single file. Snow covers the mountains' peaks, but the lower slopes look like rust -- dry, rocky, and bare. As we bank around the river bend, we see our first flash of green in the fields below and then the rectangular mud huts of the village, where hundreds of Afghans mass to greet us.
The digital era has imposed lots of changes to the music industry. Adapting to the new ways of distributing music is a challenge all recording artists are confronted with nowadays. Since communication enables trends to find today’s audience faster and more efficient, established musicians have to acclimatize themselves to the demands of a new generation of music listeners. While this development can signify a struggle for experienced artists to leave a legacy, there has been a wave of new faces emerging within the industry that seem to completely abandon the conservative way of building a career.

http://www.electronlibre.info/Les-services-de-musique-en-ligne-a,01131 La tribune d’Axel Dauchez dans le Monde n’en finit pas de susciter des réactions. Après le SNEP par la voix de David El Sayegh, puis Jonathan Benassaya, ex pdg de Deezer, c’est au tour de Yves Riesel, Directeur de Abeille Musique et co-fondateur du site de musique en ligne Qobuz.com. J’étais isolé en affirmant que le streaming gratuit figurait un remède de gribouille pour guérir du piratage. Lire les échanges entre Axel Dauchez et David El Sayegh, réconforte : les idées reçues évoluent, lentement. Axel Dauchez avance des bouts de diagnostics exacts, mais on hésitera à le choisir comme médecin de référence.
