Dotcom’s Megabox to Launch “A Few Months” After Mega

With his upcoming project titled Megabox, Kim Dotcom is hoping to put the major music labels out of business. The music service promises to shift the balance of power away from multi-billion dollar corporations to the artists who actually make the music. Initially Megabox was scheduled to launch this year, but Dotcom informs TorrentFreak that it will take a few more months to get it ready.

December last year Kim Dotcom revealed his plan to put the “dinosaur record labels” out of business.

In a guest post for TorrentFreak, Dotcom said his revolutionary music platform called Megabox was about to go public, but due to a well-known intervention from the U.S. Government that launch never happened.

Dotcom, however, is not giving up that easily. With a team of developers he’s working hard to get a new Megaupload (or Mega as it’s correctly titled) as well as Megabox ready for a public release.

The separation between the two projects hasn’t been made entirely clear in the press with several news outlets reporting that Megabox will launch next month, confusing it with the new file-storage platform Mega.

However, presently there is no official launch date for Megabox.

“Megabox will launch a few months after Mega,” Dotcom informs TorrentFreak, adding that he can release no further details at the moment.

The music service is currently being developed by the Portuguese company Triworks, also featured in the teaser video below.

Megabox is coming “soonish”

When it’s released later in 2013 Megabox will give the public access to free music, while compensating artists through advertising revenue.

Dotcom believes that this “free music” business model has the potential to decrease music piracy while giving artists proper compensation for their work.

This revenue is expected to come from the Megakey application users will be required to install in exchange for free content. Megakey works like an ad blocker, but instead of blocking ads it replaces a small percentage with Mega’s own ads. Those who prefer not to install the app have the option to buy the music instead.

“Music will be free for users who install the Megakey App. Anyone who does not like the App can just purchase the music,” Dotcom told TorrentFreak previously.

Most of the revenue generated will go directly to the artists with Megabox keeping a small share. This fraction pales in comparison to the amounts held back by the major labels.

“These new solutions will allow content creators to keep 90% of all earnings and generate significant income from the untapped market of free downloads,” Dotcom said.

According to Dotcom there are several “top artists” lined up for the launch. Whether Megabox will be able to challenge the mighty influence of the major labels will become clear in a few months’ time.

  Yeah, that web was online back then, I didn’t know it wasn’t fully launched, as far as I remember if you had uploaded music to your megaupload account your files of music can be streamed on Megabox if you wanted.

You can sure bet that the RIAA, BREIN, BPI etc. will no doubt accuse MEGABOX of being an illegal business and scream that MEGABOX is profiteering from piracy in some way etc. but if everyone of the artists that sign up to MEGABOX do not have a contract with the RIAA, BREIN, BPI etc. beforehand and are all indiependant artists then the business cannot in any way be breeching any copyright infringement. In time should MEGABOX become an enormous success maybe those artists who are contracted to the RIAA,BREIN, BPI etc. when there contracts come to an end jump ship and sign up to MEGABOX.
- TheS4ndm4n
  
  Not owning the copyright or not having an artist signed has never stoppen them from sending takedown requests before.
  
  Hell, the major labels even sell music they dont own (anymore) without compensating the artist.
- aikanae
  
  Didn’t the Promo Bay get over 10,000 submissions for their front page? This is what music rights groups fear is that muscians don’t need them anymore when they can distribute music just as well online + make 90% more doing it. I’m surprised that no one came along and stole the idea while Dotcom’s been sitting in court.
  
  This isn’t just about music, it’s for anyone who is creative – as most people are at something – software, video, instructions, reviews. It’s like starting a people-driven network (without the US).

If Spotify can do it, so can DotCom. Rock on man!!!
- Highboi
  
  You just had to be that guy XD
  The difference between spotify and dotcom is dotcom won’t be able to share music by those under contracts. Even if the artist themselves sign up, they don’t actually own their music. Not to mention those greedy artists that enjoy the rich and famous lifestyle they might not want to give it up. I can see only true artists signing up for this, those that love to make music and not just for a profit
  - puddipuddi
    
    I may be wrong on this but I though he planned on letting the artists keep the rights to their music. Maybe I’m wrong though since it hasn’t been mentioned in a while.
    - Guest
      
      Who cares as long as the artists receive the proceeds and not some parasitic organisation like the RIAA or MPAA? It’s all about money, right? If those that create and perform get the majority, and the public get what they want at a fair price, neither them, nor us can really complain.
- Musician
  
  Spotify gets its music from record labels.
  
  Nobody in their right mind would give their music to Kim Dotcom.
  
  lol. You people have jumped the shark.
  - Hej
    
    And artists makes nothing from spotify. Spotify is the worst that couldve happen to indie musicians as they now make nothing LEGALLY. And if youre not well known people wont listen to you if youre not on stupify as noone bothers with mp3′s anymore. I as a member of a band that has sold at most 1000 records see great potential with megabox. We are on spotify but id rather see us not being there.

      and what is so special about Megabox? you can be on iTunes or wherever

      With iTunes artists only get 9 cents/track purchased, with Megabox, artists will be getting 90 cents/track purchased.

“December last year Kim Dotcom revealed his plan to put the “dinosaur record labels” out of business.”

Is probley why RIAA/MPAA moved forward in trying to take him down. Reminds be a bit of the end of the movie “lord of war”. “I know that just because they needed me that day didn’t mean that they wouldn’t make me a scapegoat the next.” – Yuri Orlov. They needed megaupload to take down a piracy group but then turned on him for it. Truthfully this would be a sign to everyone else similar business don’t keep any evidence for like this for them, they most likely use it like they did back on you.

How are you going to give away music you don’t own? and think the USA is just gonna stand by and watch it happen, The artist can’t even give away there own music because they don’t own it, I wish him much success but he’s playing with FIRE fucking with the US
- Anyone
  
  you can’t own music
  - Yo-yo
    
    You can own the copyright to the works though. Usually when an artist gets signed to a major label, any work they produce is copyrighted under the label, rather than the artist. Therefore, it’s not the artists decision most of the time when it comes to distribution and sales.
- Anon
  
  Yes he is playing with fire. Hopefully this will be just what it takes to put him away permanently… and throw away the key.

I look forward to the day when the standard is NOT to sell the rights to your own work to such greedy companies like the RIAA and the MPAA

    This is so fucking annoying and super idiotic! Do you really notice people don’t notice that?
    
    IDIOT!!!!
- Guest
  
  Err The artists who are signed up the RIAA etc are owned by the RIAA and can’t give away the music if they want too because the RIAA will claim copyright ownership of the artists music. However, independant artists who do not have a contract with anyone are freely able to give away their music if they choose so they can sign up to Megabox if they wish to promote and get paid for their music they produce. The RIAA won’t like the fact that the artists are going to keep 90% of the money with Megabox but hey if the RIAA don’t have the artist signed with them then they can’t do jack shit to the artist or to to Megabox.

I’m really excited about Megabox, but I fear one issue that brought down many similar businesses already: How is the money going to be split?

  Not to mention all of the “free” music already floating around.
- 50Fun
  
  “How is the money going to be split?”
  
  Fifty-Fifty is funny?
  - DannyUfonek
    
    I meant how it is going to be split amongst the artists – a problem that killed most of MP3 monthly (or whatever) subscription sites, often before the MAFIAA went after them. Pay-per-download (each dl raises your “rating”, and based on that rating you get a share from a big pool of money gained from subscribers) failed, because sooner or later, people are going to abuse the system, whenever there is a big pool which people are paid from. I’m looking forward to how Dotcom will sort this problem out.
    - Deebeedooh
      
      I think it may be like all ad money that corresponds to download would go into artist’s account – MegaBox share.
      
      I imagine that they’ll make system that would track which song user downloads (if megakey used) and then assign appropriate money to artist’s account.
      Such system wouldn’t be even hard to write (from programmer’s standpoint). I think it’d be few hours at most.
      
      And with bought music it’d be simple: any money earned by specified song – MB share.
mikeh3775

“This revenue is expected to come from the Megakey application users will be required to install in exchange for free content” <– Install spyware for free music everyone!!!! Sorry, but I WILL NEVER install something that has promises like that, because that is exactly what adware and spyware loves to do as well.

I
- Try Harder Troll
  
  lol troll is trying to use scare tactics.
  - mikeh3775
    
    So I am a troll for refusing to install something that to me smells fishy? I guess that makes me a troll then. Especially since I seem to recall Sony being in trouble for installing rootkits on PC’s when you ripped their CD’s years ago, or how about all those places that allow you access to “free music” with special players that have to be installed, which security software goes nuts over?
    
    If he wants people to not have to pay, and instead see ads, make it a pay site then and have zero ads and still allow access to all the music, and not have to install something on the PC that will overwrite other ads on the site to just his ads then? See thats the issue I have. If he wanted people to have access to free music, just start a pay site and split the proceeds with the artists from that.
    - Highboi
      
      The whole point of this was free music, a pay site would defeat that purpose now wouldn’t it?
    - mikeh3775
      
      So exactly where is the money going to come from then, if people use ad blockers?
      
      And exactly how is advertising really going to bring in much money, if no one clicks the ads that they have on the site(since most ads require clicks to pay).
      
      This whole plan is full of holes, from 1) needing to install spyware to allow you to gain access to free music, and 2) claiming its going to be paid for with advertising.
      
      Just ask Google how much revenue they are getting from Youtube advertising, oh yeah, thats right, nothing still, even though they claimed they be making money from it by now with advertising on the site when they bought it, except many use ad blockers and don’t click the ads on the site.
    - Highboi
      
      @mikeh it’s funny my name is Michael and my last name starts with h. Anyways mega isn’t asking you to install an ad blocker, he’s asking you to Install an ad replacer that would replace other people’s ad with theirs. I was never a fan of these toolbar/plugin crap since I consider them to be spy/ad ware and bloat ware. And most non tech savvy users do click ads without knowing. I’ve seen my mother do google searches and a majority of the time she would click the first result(the first 2 are ads followed by actual results)
    - Bob65536
      
      There is a difference between adware and spyware. Adware is fine with me as long as the ads aren’t intrusive or excessive, and the extension isn’t a resource hog. They have to make money somehow. Not all ad companies pay per click. Some pay per view or a combination of the two.
      
      I doubt it will be spy on you any more than Google and Facebook do. Once it is released read over their privacy policy. Dotcom is going to be much more cautious about sticking to the law this time. Also do a web search a couple weeks after it is released and you will be able to find out exactly what information it gathers.
      
      I do agree with you about replacing ads. That is kinda a dick move to steal money from other websites. I just think its a little soon to be so negative about something we haven’t seen yet. And if you decide not to install the extension you have the option to pay for the service.
- Dude
  
  As a user of the megakey program, i had no problems other than waiting for the premium time each day.
- puddipuddi
  
  meh id sleep better if I knew i watched some ads and someone who made some music was getting paid because i looked at the ads and decided I don’t need my dick to be any bigger. Fuck it I was gonna download it anyway, now he just got paid.
- ThumbsUpThumbsDown
  
  Consider it a tool that allows you to DONATE to the Creative work that really IS good enpough for your attention.
  
  That tool doesn’t necessarily have to track you: In fact, here customers are being offered standards of privacy and personal control unavailable anywhere in the existing marketplace: A) User level encryption, B) Minimal retention of personally identifying information, and C) Payment options uncorrupted by the PayPal sepsis. Mega’s survival depends directly on zero failure tolerance in regard to these three conditions.
  
  Consider: Mega’s business doesn’t last a day on the basis that any part of its business, including its “Funding or Donations” Tool tracks customers.
  
  Personally, I would consider it massive added value received from any system that brings the power to pay creative artist lavishly; and, simultaniously exclude every parrasitic monopoly digital distributor from the payment stream.

Megabox seems like one of those big projects that are about to fail miserably, nothing other than megaupload can replace megaupload, fact.
- ThumbsUpThumbsDown
  
  A better “MegaUpload” can replace MegaUpload.
  
  A MegaUpload that has been made better strategicly positioned in respect to DMCA Safe Harbors. One with distributed highest grade encryption at user level.
  A MegaUpload that can say, “We are mere conduits with no control over content. If you wish to sue our six billion customers individually, that’s fine. Just make sure that on your way to the Supreme Court, you’ve dotted everty I and crossed every single T that might be galacticly related to their substantial Constitutional Rights!”
  
  A MegaUpload whose revenue sources are not as easily assailable as the old rewards system: Say where Corporately unaffiliated Creative Artists are empowered to store and distribute their creative workproduct globally while retaining the overwhelming preponderance of any resulting revenue stream.
  
  Sounds like just what the Doctor ordered as the perfect Copyright Monopoly ass kicker to me!
  
  The open question is credibility and implementation.
  
  What’s the difference between a plan and a pipedream?
  
  You guessed it!! Credibility and implementation.

  Megabox and Mega have not the same purpose,
  they will be different webs and services.
  Megabox already existed and Megakey too, I remember I installed that back then,
  there was this promise of getting free content if you had installed Megakey,
  nothing especial happened, I suppose that was because it wasn’t ready,
  just as this article explained,

It might be nice what will be even better will be the megakey crack that will give free music without the adverts and the crack will no doubt be hosted on mega! Ha HA sucker nothing and I mean goddamn nothing will stop piracy for those that want it. I don’t have and won’t be denied so fuck you mafiaa shits and anyone who thinks they have a great plan to stop piracy.

Obama provides food stamps for the poor which is now half the country so why not entertainment stamps after all if everyone else can buy music and movies or go to theaters why should the poor be denied a little entertainment. If the us can go 16 trillion debt and the market doesn’t give a shit so why not 30 or 45 trillion. He might as well or we are going to pirate our shit so ought to take care of his greedy fuck buddies in hollywood and let us pirate if he does not want to pay for it.

  This is why we can’t have nice things. Yeah, some people pirate simply because they can, there’s nothing that can be done about them. Others pirate because buying products is kind of expensive, or because of DRM, or some other reason. So here we have someone trying to kill off a terrible business model with one that allows people to listen to music for free, and you want to use a crack just to prove that it can be done. Nice.

Fat Kim would like to announce that he has found another way to suck a bunch of people into giving him money so he can continue his arrogant, self-serving lifestyle.

Yep more of the organised criminal who pays this site for advert articles. Really profit piracy will not work and please stop promoting it you do the file sharing scene a great injustice doing so! I support free sharing BUT will NEVER support this method of piracy. It is just wrong to allow this man to collect funds like this. Hope he gets busted again as I fucking hate this fat bastard for the heat he brings to the scene.

I don’t think the concept sounds very good. I don’t have a problem with any person or business on earth trying to make a buck but file sharing is suppose to be free period. Those of us that believe in this philosophy will continue this tradition long after any KitDotCom services have come and gone..

I don’t think this newer Mega is much different than before.. bottom line is before and after there is ad’s but now he’s adding new methods to collect money from the public, much of it under the guise of being a Robbin Hood for music artists.
If people want to pay money they can go download of iTunes or something.
And if they want something that has no fee they will do whatever we all do already.

I want to root for him but he’s making it hard.

There are places where ad’s on web sites are acceptable to me but its about as smart a business model as the music industry is using now.
I’ve long been tired of hearing people make excuses for ad related promotion..
I have setup stuff like that on some sites years ago so i’ve been on both sides but i think its sleazy.. always have.
I have never clicked on an ad before and never will (on purpose)
I’m also not going to pay KimDotCom for the remove the ad’s web site business model used in many places. And worse his idea is an ad’s replacement ? wtf !

Back to my original point.. since this is so much like what he was doing before he might as well just put the old web site back up (he used ad’s on Megaupload before if i remember correctly)
Think about it people compare what it was like before and what he wants to do now..

Unless you can compete or work with the existing file sharing systems we have your wasting your time.. We have many file sharing networks and methods including plenty of file locker style services.. so I’m not sure who will dump those methods for his.

Just my opinions.. not trying to bash Kim and i wish him success etc
I just don’t think his current idea is very good or that it will work very well.

Kim Dotcom, I am losing hope here, I have been waiting patiently to launch my music on your service almost a year, first megabox was supposed to be launched in August then before the end of this year, then according to your facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/MEGAB0X January 19, 2013 now you are saying another couple of months after that?

  That is not an official Facebook profile. The best way to get info around this subject is to follow Kim Dotcom on twitter.

    Yes it is, it was posted on his twitter page of which I am a follower.

I will finally be able to get some compensation for my music instead of paying some online radio station for my plays while listening to their advertisers interrupt the music while I pay for that too.

I think your brilliant to do the obvious. advertising dollars to pay the bills– like product placement in movies. no Brainer
