HOW can artists digitally distribute and market their own music? How can artists and labels use new technology to their advantage?
Is physical product important in 2010? What does the future hold for record shops and music retail?

Stephen Godfroy, retail director of Rough Trade; Lee Parsons, managing director of Ditto Music, and Stuart Stenhouse of Emubands, which specialises in putting unsigned artists on the digital marketplace, will offer their thoughts on the future of the industry.
