Mike Duncan talks a lot about "Entropy of Victory" and of course one must define victory but I do wonder if that is the scurge that afflicts the #ccmusic and #netlabel community.

But like many of the revolutionaries that Mike discusses in his podcasts, I want more.

Again, like so many in his podcasts, I am calling for an Assembly....and again like so many, not for the first time.

May 9 will be the first of two. This one for netlabels and musicians on netlabels before @netlabelday in July

And so what do I mean about victory? Well, there are three things:
1. Easy access to music. #ccmusic was largely born out of Napster and while there are many other contributing factors, without Napster, it was probably going to be a while before someone took the energy to do something like @creativecommons

2. Easy access to ccmusic specifically with bandcamp. Bandcamp for labels in 2014 was a turning point here.

3. #Remix is mainstream. YouTube, TicToc. EULA has overtaken license.
