Along_the_Wire The whole streaming thing stinks from top to bottom. Labels ripping off the artists and the platforms ripping off both. The money I spend my Apple Music subscription should be going to the artists I listen to and not some cunt like Ed Sheeran
apyssjw Along_the_Wire it’s so obviously wrong. SoundCloud (‘go’ I think) makes it a selling point that it pays the artists on its plays - but nobody I know subs to their streaming platform - which is different to a normal ‘artist’ page sub.
Smallman1 Should go back to the good old days where managers had the best interests of their artists!
Dan Smallman1 Most definitely… pre streaming services and all based on vinyl/cd sales. Not forgetting PRS Royalties.
