Published: Feb. 16, 2015, 1:47 a.m.

b'On today\\u2019s show I travel down under to Adelaide, Australia to speak with Simon Edhouse, the CEO of BitTunes. BitTunes is reinventing global music distribution by creating a people powered platform. Simon talks to us about how this platform allows P2P file sharing to achieve its full potential as the optimal internet distribution mechanism and how he aims to monetize the exchange of digital data.\\nSimon is a man of conscience who has been following the legacy of his family in working for the greater good. It\\u2019s not just about making money folks, sometimes it\\u2019s about doing what is right for humanity. \\n\\nAnd coming soon you\\u2019ll be able to find full transcripts of each episode of Bitcoins and Gravy in the Transcript section of BitcoinsAndGravy.com .
