Product Information
* Named one of Time magazine's Best Books of 2015 So Far * "[ How Music Got Free ] has the clear writing and brisk reportorial acumen of a Michael Lewis book."--Dwight Garner, The New York Times What happens when an entire generation commits the same crime? How Music Got Free is a riveting story of obsession, music, crime, and money, featuring visionaries and criminals, moguls and tech-savvy teenagers. It's about the greatest pirate in history, the most powerful executive in the music business, a revolutionary invention and an illegal website four times the size of the iTunes Music Store. Journalist Stephen Witt traces the secret history of digital music piracy, from the German audio engineers who invented the mp3, to a North Carolina compact-disc manufacturing plant where factory worker Dell Glover leaked nearly two thousand albums over the course of a decade, to the high-rises of midtown Manhattan where music executive Doug Morris cornered the global market on rap, and, finally, into the darkest recesses of the Internet. Through these interwoven narratives, Witt has written a thrilling book that depicts the moment in history when ordinary life became forever entwined with the world online -- when, suddenly, all the music ever recorded was available for free. In the page-turning tradition of writers like Michael Lewis and Lawrence Wright, Witt's deeply-reported first book introduces the unforgettable characters--inventors, executives, factory workers, and smugglers--who revolutionized an entire artform, and reveals for the first time the secret underworld of media pirates that transformed our digital lives. An irresistible never-before-told story of greed, cunning, genius, and deceit, How Music Got Free isn't just a story of the music industry--it's a must-read history of the Internet itself.

"A propulsive and fascinating portrait of the people who helped upend an industry and challenge how music and media are consumed." --Kirkus Reviews, "The richest explanation to date about how the arrival of the MP3 upended almost everything about how music is distributed, consumed and stored. It''s a story you may think you know, but Mr. Witt brings fresh reporting to bear, and complicates things in terrific ways. . . . [ How Music Got Free ] has the clear writing and brisk reportorial acumen of a Michael Lewis book." --Dwight Garner, The New York Times "[W]hip-smart, superbly reported and indispensable." --The Washington Post "Witt''s book is more than just a simple history -- or defense -- of file sharing, a development most people associate with Napster, but which, according to Witt, involved a much more wide-ranging--and fascinating--story." --The Seattle Times "Brilliantly written. . . . Fascinating. . . . Highly entertaining. . . . Full of surprises." -- The Guardian "An enthralling account of how technology has turned the music business upside down . . . This is a terrific, timely, informative book." --Nick Hornby, The Sunday Times (UK) "Compelling . . . . An accomplished first book." -- The Economist "Witt uncovers the largely untold stories of people like the German entrepreneurs who invented the mp3 file and Dell Glover, the compact disc factory worker who leaked some of the biggest albums of the aughts, leaving record label execs frustrated and scared." --Business Insider "[Witt] organizes his narrative around alternating chapters that each focus on a separate protagonist: an engineer, an executive, and a criminal: Universal chairman Doug Morris and two nemeses Morris didn''t even know he had: German engineer Karlheinz Brandenburg, and music pirate Dell Glover, a Polygram/Universal employee at the Tennessee CD manufacturing plant." --The Daily Beast " How Music Got Free is the result of five years of tunnel-vision focus on the history of digital music." -- The Village Voice "[A] fascinating account of the rise of music piracy. . . . An engrossing story. . . . The year''s most important music book. -- The Independent (UK) "A virtuosic, briskly readable account of when the music industry was briefly, seemingly, brought to its knees. . . . There''s a lot to learn from the music business'' antagonistic relationship with the technology that defined it, and Witt lays it all out on the page." -- The Portland Mercury "The story of how the Internet brought the imperious music business to its knees has never been told more succinctly and readably than it is here. . . . How Music Got Free cries out for a movie treatment like The Social Network." --BookPage "A riveting detective story . . . Witt''s exposé of the business of mainstream music will intrigue fans and critics of pop culture and anyone who has bought a compact disc, downloaded an MP3, or used a streaming music service." -- Library Journal "A propulsive and fascinating portrait of the people who helped upend an industry and challenge how music and media are consumed." --Kirkus Reviews "Like Bond meets 28 Days Later . . . Witt tells a thrilling tale, with a cast of music biz bigwigs, painstaking German boffins, and pirates and petty thieves. Witt''s writing reminded me of all my favourite modern essayists: Remnick, Franzen and John Jeremiah Sullivan. I loved it." --Colin Greenwood, Radiohead " How Music Got Free is as much a story about greed, friendship, genius and stupidity as it is about music piracy. And it tells an amazing story of a part of the Internet (not to mention the criminal underground) that I took for granted. I burned through it--you will too." --Christian Rudder, author of Dataclysm, "Compelling . . . . An accomplished first book." -- The Economist "Witt uncovers the largely untold stories of people like the German entrepreneurs who invented the mp3 file and Dell Glover, the compact disc factory worker who leaked some of the biggest albums of the aughts, leaving record label execs frustrated and scared." --Business Insider "[Witt] organizes his narrative around alternating chapters that each focus on a separate protagonist: an engineer, an executive, and a criminal: Universal chairman Doug Morris and two nemeses Morris didn't even know he had: German engineer Karlheinz Brandenburg, and music pirate Dell Glover, a Polygram/Universal employee at the Tennessee CD manufacturing plant." --The Daily Beast " How Music Got Free is the result of five years of tunnel-vision focus on the history of digital music." -- The Village Voice "A riveting detective story . . .
