This week on Digital Music Trends from Andrea Leonelli, Duncan Geere (duncangeere.com) Dave Allen (north.com) and Virginie Berger (dbth.fr) chat about Spotify’s NYC announcement revealing free access to both tablet and mobile users and its potential impact as well as the company’s exclusive deal with Led Zeppelin, we also chat about our music tech wish lists for Christmas, Beatport‘s layoffs, Pandora‘s alarm (and the little things that make a difference), multi-platform music services and much more.

I disagree that the catalogues are finite, the web has shown that there is more music coming online everyday. There will always be more music than we could ever possibly consume. In terms of existing catalogues, sure, Led Zeppelin’s formal catalogue is finite. But when you think of all of the concert footage, exclusive performances, edits, etc. You see that it’s not. There will always be those extras which services like Spotify will not be able to manage.
