On Rotation – September 2013
Millennials and Music Consumption
The debate concerning access to music and royalties is in heat, and thanks to Thom Yorke and his very public statement about the streaming service Spotify last month, media attention has focused its lenses. A quick and simplified catch up- Some artists are unhappy with their earnings in royalties from streaming services. In many cases the amounts earned have been quoted as obscenely low (cents for thousands of plays), while Spotify claims to be paying out nearly 70% of its revenue in royalties. Of course, these royalties include a whirlwind of agencies, advertisers, and rights holders (artists, labels, publishers, and performing rights societies), and as historically done the artist is always making the least amount of money off the music.
