The Future of Music
This is a polemic with both feet on the ground. For such a small volume, it carries a great deal to think about although much of that thought will be utopian. There are a few, but too few, ideas about how to bridge the gap from the "old" ways of doing business and the "new" ways of doing future enterprises. In my opinion, technology is an opportunity, not an answer.
I would suggest to get a better picture of what is going on in the music business, one should read both Don Passman's book and The Future... more info

Meh 
This was by far the worst book I've ever read. Irrelevant quotes from famous people that aren't necessarily educated on the topic, extremely redundant, real basic info without any straight answers, some hypothetical situations that aren't pertinent to it, it's just 200 pages of fluff. If you've never once thought about the future of music then maybe this would give you an idea of what's happening.

Good read,
This is a good read for musicians and producers alike. It gives an insight into the prospects of the future of music, but it lacks the practical advice of The Future of the Music Business.

The future is now
For the most part, whenever authors write about new media and the Internet, the book is dated by the time the ink dries. For the most part "The Future of Music: Manifesto for the Digital Music Revolution" is still ahead of the curve. David Kusek and Gerd Leonhard take chances. Most futurists do. Some of their visions are hitting the bull's eye now in March, 2005 although the book was published two years ago. That's pretty good aim. It reads well too.
