Tape Op Magazine > Tape Log > On Spotify (and Why I'm not a Conspiracy Theorist After All) In a fascinating and really open Facebook debate initiated by fellow producer, cycling enthuiasist, and coffee-drinking pal, Eric Ambel (www.ericambel.com), I was alerted to what was finally a clear insight into how and why Spotify could possibly have landed an agreement with the bigger record labels granting it (Spotify) access to such an enormous and uber-valuable catalog of recordings while completely shafting the artists with the probably worst deal in history since the you-get-nothing deals of yesteryear.
Basically, it's all here in this article in The Guardian by Helienne Lindvall: Let me paraphrase what Lindvall says: In exchange for access to the music catalogs the labels own, Spotify gave the labels Spotify stock. Said stock is sequestered into the labels financial structure in a way that gives artists no access to the proceeds of this deal. Sort-of-pro-Spotify Argument 2: "Spotify is the new radio.

About Music Beta by Google. #1 New York Times Bestseller Over 10 million copies sold In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.
For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it. " In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. 88tc88's Blog | Your Music On China´s Phones! Business Matters: Do Teens Really Like Subscriptions Better Than Paid Downloads? Spotify Payouts – The Strangeness Continues. This post is by Faza at The Cynical Musician . When I originally wrote about the Spotify payouts for my music, I noted the large divergence between the minimum and maximum amounts paid per play.
From what I’ve read elsewhere, nobody really has a clue as to how the rate per-stream is calculated (other than Spotify, of course). I was mystified as to the spread of the numbers at the time of writing the previous post and, if anything, I’m even more confused now that I have the benefit of a much greater sample of accounting statements. One thing that hasn’t changed over the past months is the average rate per-stream, which tends to hover around 0.16 cents. However, this is an arithmetic mean that really tells us nothing of the kind of money we can expect from having a play on Spotify. As mentioned, the mean rate isn’t really reflective of typical Spotify payouts, so I took some extra effort to analyse all data I have so far. Nevertheless, such high rates-per-stream remain the exception. Octoshape: INFINITE EDGE. Report: Cloud Music Services to Hit 161M Subscribers by 2016 | Digital Media Wire. London - Cloud-based music streaming services, such as those offered by Rhapsody and Spotify, "will become a more important form of access to music than owning albums or songs by 2016, according to a report from market researcher ABI Research.
Driven by the growing use of smartphones, ABI projects the number of subscribers to cloud-based music services will grow at an annual rate of nearly 95%, and exceed 161 million in 2016. The number of subscribers to cloud music services is expected to top 5.9 million by the end of this year. Sometime next year, ABI analyst Aapo Markkanen predicts, "the Asia-Pacific area will become the largest regional market for mobile music streaming. " Prices for cloud music services are expected to gradually decline as they reach mass markets. "Forecasts of declining prices are based on the assumption that the rights-holders will lower their royalty demands," said ABI’s Neil Strother.
