Trš, Lukáš ; Běláčková, Vendula (advisor) ; Chalupníček, Pavel (referee)
This thesis is concerned with the effect of widespread internet use on the sales of audio CDs. It analyses trends in the American and Czech markets from the end of the 1990's to today. Its analysis is based on the relationship between musical genres and their respective target audiences with the hypothesis being that genres with listeners who have adopted the internet more rapidly are more affected than other genres. The thesis proves that the decrease in music sales in the last ten years, the bulk of which have been CDs, has been caused by the graudual establishment of the internet with its probable illegal downloading of recordings and the change in format to MP3 from CD.

Multi-tier system of distribution of audiovisual content
Pulda, Michal ; Donát, Jiří (advisor) ; Mildeová, Stanislava (referee)
This paper analyzes and critically evaluates present music and video market functioning with emphasis to the sales of electronic format of this content which is preferred by current customers. It analyzes the widespread trend of content sharing via the Internet and specifies reasons why the trend is happening. It defines cases of behavior that are justifiable in the eyes of consumers and therefore legitimate (i.e. creation of backups, downloading and sharing legally unavailable content, downloading for personal use, etc.) and elements that reduce value of the legally distributed content for the customer (copy protection mechanisms or current licensing system). Furthermore, it analyzes new economic approaches that enable the utilization potential of the Internet (i.e. the Long Tail Theory) or of potential customers (Crowdsourcing, Word of Mouth, Gamification). The paper analyzes the functioning new services that use the Internet as a platform for their operation and offer users the experience they want. Proposal for this new system of audiovisual content distribution is proposed based on a synthesis of findings from the operation of these services, new theoretical approaches and author's own contribution. This new system rejects the idea of selling the content as goods (per items) and adopts an approach of access to the whole catalogue of content for a flat monthly fee. This newly born service has several tiers that differ qualitatively among themselves, also in terms of added value for users and finally in the price at which the layers are available. This system is very acceptable to customers as well as being an interesting long-term alternative to the current system for operators of the new system and copyright holders.

The music work of Anthony Philip Heinrich is a suitable example to create the conception, methods and processes of the practical animation strategy. The personality of this composer, comming from the Bohemia on the edge of the 18th and 19th century, became famous in the United States as a musician, composer and organiser of the musical life. Although his life and work are wellknown in the United States, it si not the case of the Czech Republic. The awareness of Heinrich's life and work is relatively low in the Czech society due to distortions of culture after World War II. The knowledge of his work is restricted in the community of the musicologists, nowadays. The composer is not forgotten, however, his life deserves a comeback to the Czech music life. This thesis is a case study providing the animation strategy of the A. P. Heinrich's music work. The application of such a case study will contribute to incorporation of a partly forgotten composer into the Czech concert life and particularly into the cultural economics.
