    Beck song reader is a book filled with 20 songs worth of sheet music and more then 100 pages. He's displayed music as sheet music for people to produce it the way they want to hear it, rather then how they've heard it. This has allowed people to sing and perform the music they wish to. They have been able to publish their work on the internet, allowing people to see the different ways they people have performed the music. This give people the freedom to listen to how they like music rather then how it's meant to be. 

    This is a different way of producing music as its up to Becks fans to product the kind of music they like and the way they like to listen to it. This makes costs a lot cheaper as they do not have to spend out on a recording 
    studio, making it how the fans like their music, this allows a larger audience as they have more freedom with their music. 

    When exchanging music most fans will publish their work on the internet on sites such as YouTube, this then starts a bond between fans as they can comment on what they like about one another's work and make suggestions. Beck himself has produced a website where his fans can go onto and publish their music. 

    The people who has produced music are able to post their work on different websites such as, spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud and also on Becks website. People and then download these. The audiences to this can comment ot this so the artist can improve on the feedback or produce work which their audeince wants to hear.
