JK2006 Glad you pointed this out Chris - Simon makes nothing out of Rage; indeed, I was a consultant to CBS (Sony way back then) in the Rage era; then moved across to BMG in the mid-late 90s and saved Simon's job there.
Chris Retro I would like to have it explained how on earth Cowell would profit from an unrelated 17 yr old American rock track just cos it happens to be on Sony.... I thought his dreadful production company had a deal with Sony, not that SC had BECOME Sony. Smacks to me of misinformation to try and take the teeth out of the Rage campaign mid-week, fortunately one that didn't work.
If we want to show this concept really really works against the media, let's do it again next year with Another Rock'n'Roll Christmas - a song which I seem to hear in every supermarket I venture into at the minute

Spot on Bobbie and 2010 will see, if I have anything to do with it, much higher profile, exposure and promotion for those very artistes and tracks. If it's good, we'll make it a hit and we'll make people aware of it - if you build it, they will come.

Watch out Mr Cowell; your mentor is back in business!
Woohoo! What an exciting year it promises to be.

Happy New Year Everybody!

The NEW model will be about making money from music without getting into "offical" charts.

That's already being done, TV & Film syncs, gigging etc. There's also a few "Youtube artists" making a living from sales of music which aren't counted by any chart.

You just don't hear about them as they're not making the charts!
