| dc.description.abstract | This paper proposes a possible explanation for uniform pricing in the recorded music industry, based on a pooling equilibrium across different quality types. We show that an ex ante ability to invest in the probability of success – which we identify with record companies’ artists and repertoire (A&R) expenditures – makes such a pooling equilibrium more likely. | en_AU |
