More Insanity from UMG CEO Doug Morris
First, he said that iPods are "just repositories for stolen music", then he complained that "if you had Coca-Cola coming through the faucet in your kitchen, how much would you be willing to pay for Coca-Cola?" nevermind that the bottled water business doesn't seem to be in trouble.
Now he's saying that MTV was "a disaster" for Universal Music Group:
"Take a look at MTV. It turned out to be a disaster for us. We sold some records, but they built this huge company and we gave them our [music] for nothing, and what did we get?"
Doug, you got a promotional pipeline straight to your target audience, you ungrateful slob.
When will UMG wise up and fire Doug Morris?
