Bob Dylan sold his entire music catalog to Universal Music for more than $300MM, Paul Simon sold his to Sony Music for roughly the same, and Dolly Parton might be next. What’s behind this sudden boom?Though these recent multi-million dollar deals seem to be popping out of nowhere, the truth is, catalog sales have been booming for far longer than the past year, and have an incredibly steady history. Over the past year, however, there has seemed to be an exponential increase in music catalog sales. Could this be due to the pandemic shifting the spotlight away from the live music entertainment aspect to a new side of the industry?In this episode, music industry experts joined our host, Brian Adams, to explore specific factors that have driven recent success in the industry.[00:01 – 03:42] Opening SegmentAn insight into the episodeIntroduction to the participants of the webinarJohn OzierPaul SteeleAndy Moats[03:43 – 16:04] The Cause Behind the Recent BoomAsset classes in the music industryActive and Passive assetsExit strategies for artists due to the pandemicMonetizing the art of musicStreaming’s contribution to the growth of the industryEmerging markets for streaming[16:05 – 41:46] The Economics of The Music IndustryThe Right time to Buy or Sell a catalogThe potential of investing in the music industryLending optionsTerm Loan BDifferentiating themselves from the amateurs in the spaceOptions to invest in the Music Industry[41:47 – 52:26] The Future of the Streaming IndustryThe Future of the Streaming IndustryVarious ways to monetize music streamingPrivate Equity ExitRetail Investor options[52:27 – 54:48] Closing SegmentReach out to our guests.
