As part of our partnership with Canadian Music Week 2011, Mediazoic is proud to offer conference attendees and Internet music aficionados the opportunity for some entertaining and educational programming. Presenting both an industry panel and interview series, the events will be live-video-streamed over the Internet, so if you can't make it out to CMW, you can still not only view but also participate in these two great programs.
Our production partner to help bring you this programming is andPOP, one of Canada's premiere multi-platform sources for pop culture news and interviews, with breaking stories appearing on outlets like Entertainment Tonight Canada, MSNBC and The National Post. andPOP's content reaches audiences across North America, including XM Radio Canada, AUX TV, CHCH, Dose.ca, and Rogers On Demand Online.
