"Earlier this year, JamBase, an online resource for live music events, celebrated its 10th anniversary by surpassing the one-million mark for live music listings in its database. Our own Mark Hopkins spoke to the company\u2019s CEO, David Rosenheim, several weeks after the fact. Today it is expanding its influence some more, with some additions to its roster of syndication partners, which previously included Rhapsody, Zvents, and iConcertCal. Now Imeem and Fuzz, both music networks built to connect bands and solo artists with fans, will be pulling in JamBase content, which presently spans some 50 genres.\nWhat will ties with two new channels do for JamBase? According to JamBase\u2019s estimate, the company will now be serving a viewer base of some 35 million people each month. And that number is only likely to grow. As many a music fan knows well, social networks are where more and more bands are promoting events, so JamBase can really only strengthen its brand and built upon its already quite extensive reach by positioning itself as an information source for third parties.\nJamBase is presumed only to continue to grow. With the live music industry showing concert ticket revenue of some $1.7 billion to $3.9 billion growth between 2000 and 2007 (according to Pollstar), one might imagine that there\u2019s ample demand for JamBase\u2019s services and will continue to be for many years to come. The record industry understands now more than ever about the decreased influence of media sales on its collective bottom line, so logic would have it that heavier investment in live shows is in the cards. If the trend proves lasting, JamBase will find its value - for itself as well as its partners - only increase with time.\nThe embed is available below, or you can download the MP3 file directly here.\n Get the Mashable Conversations podcast here.
