And I decided to create something that will help me to run and not to think about music.” Alex Kochetkov, (2:57) “It helps people just not to think about music. So we should make the music the commodity.” Alex Kochetkov, (9:58) “When you have the opportunity to work with your team in the evening…and to spend some time on these inspiring talks, when you talk not about your product, not about your current situation, but about the future of your product, that's the most inspiring thing.” Alex Kochetkov, (20:38) “...Mubert is the product that [content creators] can use. We have free plans, they can use Mubert to create the ideas that inspire them…which will never have these problems with copyrights…and to create something cool.” Alex Kochetkov, (27:33) Contact Will Crist
