Next weeks SFMusicTech Summit highlights the rise of online music education. With a study showing people are willing to pay up to $50 a month* for online music lessons, the San Francisco event, which brings together visionary entrepreneurs and investors in the evolving music/business/technology space, will host a panel on what this rise of online music lessons means for musicians, startups and consumers.  Speaking on the panel will be former AOL VP of Technology and Strategy David Butler, whose own Napa-based edtech startup has become the largest provider of online music schools with paid subscribers in over 58 countries.
