Abstract :
Technological advances, market shifts in the recording industry, and aesthetic elements have converged to make recording and releasing a self-produced album financially feasible for the independent jazz musician. A critical step in the process of completing such a project involves the utilization of one ore more e-government services offered by the U.S. Copyright Office and the Library of Congress. This observational value assessment compares and contrasts these services with similar and related e-services in the private sector.
