CMU Digest

With 2014 fast approaching, how about some news on us here at CMU? Because we have a brand new premium service launching for the music business in January, for which this link here is the one you need.

Yep, from next month we will be providing the music industry with a brand new CMU Digest, which will monitor all the news stories published in the Daily and then provide a weekly and monthly round-up of the key trends and developments, with analysis on what that means for artists, managers, labels, publishers, promoters and everyone working in music. The weekly round up will take the form of an extra email bulletin, while the monthly report will be provided in PDF format.

CMU Digest will be a premium service, though a subscription costs just £4.99 a month, and for a limited time readers can sign up for a twelve month subscription at the special early-bird rate of less than £2.50 a month.

CMU Publisher and Business Editor Chris Cooke explains: “Over 25,000 people now tap into CMU on a daily basis for all the latest news about music, music people and the music business, while through CMU Insights we have provided training and consultancy for hundreds to music companies this year. The new CMU Digest service combines these two elements of what we do, tracking the news stories our editorial team publish, applying the expertise of the CMU Insights team, and then providing a concise but comprehensive summary”.

It’s the first premium content service CMU has offered since going fully online in 2002. Cooke continues: “Ever since the start of CMU our mission has been to connect everyone working in music, the ‘Complete Music Update for the complete music community’, as the slogan goes. This remains core to everything do, and is why we provide the CMU Daily and website free of charge, and will always do so. Indeed, in the DIY age, supporting the grass roots music community in this way is more important than ever”.

He goes on: “But it does require quite an investment on our part, and through the new premium offer, anyone in the industry who wants to support the provision and expansion of our free services, and who can afford to do so, can now help. And in return, we’ll provide added value content: a concise weekly and monthly summary that gives the always busy music business professional all the key information they need in one place. And, as with our CMU Insights courses, we kept the price as low as possible in a bid to exclude no one”.

The new CMU Digest kicks off in January, but you can sign up now for the whole of 2014 at the very special rate of £29, and if you do you will receive a special review of the last year in the music business at the end of the month. Click here to subscribe.
