Online Music Store

Concept Paper on a commercial online music store.

I wrote this paper for a major german music label to expose the key issues of building up an successful online music store. Main task was to show how distributing digital music can be commercially fruitful, and fit the customer’s need at the same time.

The paper gives an overview on digital rights management, on varying digital music techniques and their ability to protect the label’s rights.

The second big task was the technical conception of creating the new system and integrating it with legacy systems.
