DEMO Profile

About DEMO

History

Back in the halcyon days when free music was being offered over the Internet first by MP3 and then by the upstart Napster, nobody was really concerned with formulating a globally accepted de facto standard for secured electronic music sales (SEMS™) certifications, except Andre Gray!  Why?  The answer is very simple:  He realized that while free music over the Internet provided the perfect utopia for music lovers around the world and independent artists wanting to connect with a large fan base without going through a music label, this party would eventually, inevitably, come to an end.  And it did end. 

Music Industry

Today, both MP3 and Napster are owned by one of the five major labels in the music business and still exists primarily as circumcised ghosts from the resurrected past.  Those first two dispensations revolutionized the music industry and sent the major labels running scared; they were great for our industry and, depending on who you ask, provided food for thought for the major labels about how music fans felt about paying exorbitant prices for CDs that can be manufactured at $0.50 per unit or less.  For musicians fed up with major label bureaucracy and music fans exasperated by ever increasing CD prices, the message to the music industry was heard loud and clear:  “Internet Killed the Video Star”©. 

De Facto Standard

This bring us to our third dispensation.  While the music industry, led by the RIAA, was busy fighting high profile cases against MP3 and Napster, Andre Gray was busy single-handedly devising and fine-tuning his Internet music sales certifications model.  He created the globally-accepted de facto standard for secured electronic music sales (SEMS™) certifications.  This is an original idea by Andre Gray without any input, advice, or consultation from any other individual, group, or organization(s).  It is, in essence, his 100% unadulterated idea to come up with an Internet music sales certification system.  Andre Gray is the forerunner of a new epoch. 

MP3 and Napster may have shaken off the foundations of the music industry, but it was Andre Gray who finally brought the house down.
