Spring 2024 - Quite an easy class. Would recommend to anyone interested in learning more about the business side of the music industry. You don't really need the assigned reading to do good in the course, as the prof provides all the necessary materials to complete the two midterm/final projects. There were no tests. I enjoyed the course greatly; however, be warned that the class touches on the greatness of AI a LOT, and less so other aspects of Music and the Internet. It is also a little difficult to determine the structure of the course. Overall, I enjoyed the course, and would recommend Prof. Macfadyen a lot.
