Bhaskar Menon passed away this week
Mr. Menon was a music industry legend.
Chances are, you wouldn’t have even heard his name until now.
Well, he was associated with most of the biggest music labels in the world.
As the erstwhile CEO of Capitol Records, he was instrumental in launching the seminal 1973 album of Pink Floyd ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’.
It was not just Floyd; Menon was also associated with The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and the who’s who of the legendary music days.

A Paradigm Shift?
Two very interesting developments happened this week.
Australia passed a law forcing online publishers like Google and Facebook to share advertising revenue with original news content owners.
Secondly, amidst the pressure between Capitol Hill and the EU regulations, Google has decided that it intends to stop serving ads based on tracking surfer history and behaviour across websites by 2022.
Will this play out? Time will tell us.
