Michael Robertson (mp3.com) discusses Entrepreneurship and the Music Industry.

He's telling the story of how he got MP3.com. Love it.

"Back in those days all the files were on ftp servers not web servers. Well I saw people searching for "mp3" cause it appeared on the bottom of the top 100 list that we would print out. My biz instinct said "if people are searching for it there must be opportunity."

This is a very interesting item as I believe the 4 out of the 5 user accounts that have commented on this (in the last 3 hours) are part of a voting ring.

Fascinating to see it.

MP3.com for $1,500 in 1997 from a guy who's initials were M.P and had no idea what an MP3 was! Classic.

This guy is a freaking genius.

Freaking amazing speaker

telling the story of acquiring mp3.com ... sweet.
