More Music Industry News: Pandora vs. Spotify, Missing Music Buyers, Earnings Calls & More

I've been having a great (and hectic) week. Did a national NPR interview with Laura Sydell. I'll let you know when it runs. Also saw some great live music – Dave Alvin and two of his Guilty Women. I can't believe I've never seen the ex-Blaster before. Catch him if you can. Tonight, it's Ruthie Foster. Seems like Roanoke, VA really is becoming a music city.
