Summary

Music Streaming War examines the intense competition between streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, and its profound effects on artist royalties and the broader music industry. It explores how the shift to digital music distribution, particularly streaming, has redefined music's value, raising questions about the sustainability of artistic careers. An intriguing insight is the disproportionately low royalties earned by many artists, especially independent musicians, despite the high volume of streams their music receives.

 
The book presents a historical context, tracing the evolution from physical sales to digital downloads, and then to the dominance of streaming. It analyzes competitive strategies like exclusive content deals and algorithmic playlists, while also delving into the complex formulas behind artist royalties. This approach helps readers understand the discrepancies between streams and actual earnings, highlighting the economic realities faced by creators.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the key players in the streaming ecosystem, then analyzing competitive strategies and royalty calculations. It explores alternative compensation models, such as direct-to-fan platforms, and culminates in a discussion of potential policy interventions. This comprehensive analysis is essential for anyone seeking to understand the economics of digital music and the ongoing debate surrounding fair compensation in the age of music streaming.
