The Economics of Abundance

Excellent presentation Mike. If only more people would realize that the universe is NOT a zero-sum game, but filled with abundance. Scarcity is often a manipulation of marketing and politics.

Good video, but you should memorize the lines so you can look at the camera.

I like how you show that free music can still give the musicians profit as it turns into a promotional and interest gaining tool for live concerts and merchandise.

I'm guessing your next video will address adding value and convienience instead of hindering those (such as with DRM). You sort of hint at that when you said that other scarcitys were often overlooked such as attention, time, and access.

Good job!

Great video Mike! Please send a complimentary copy to the RIAA and friends. Thanks!

Basic, truthful, something the people in the industry should understand. The question is, will they? The consumer does...

I almost cried. As consolation, can I have all those presents? after all, there are enough for everyone, right??
