The big questions at our mobile music panel at our recent EconMusic conference: why is mobile music in decline and what will an effective business in this sector look like? Tom Erskine, Head of Go-to-Market, Nokia (NYSE: NOK) Music explained the problem to lie in the relationship between the digital industry and music labels, while Ian Henderson, VP Digital Business EMEA, Sony (NYSE: SNE) BMG, gave a pessimistic view, saying that mobile music was a lot bigger proportionally a year or two ago. Tom McLennan, Head of Music for Mobile Internet and Content Services, Vodafone (NYSE: VOD) UK, and Julian Zmood, Head of Business Development, Music, O2, joined the panel that was moderated by Mark Mulligan, VP and Research Director, JupiterResearch.
