No 05-10, IIR Working Paper from Institute of Innovation Research, Hitotsubashi University

Abstract: This paper examines how mobile music businesses have been developed in Japan and Korea, two countries that have led the world in creating and developing the mobile music industry. We pay attention to the music copyright institution as a "reverse salient," which we argue has played an important role to determine the direction and timing of mobile music innovation in the two countries.
