Katy Perry, Nas, Jason Derulo and more are investing in a new streaming platform

Why y'all getting salty with the platform y'all not be streaming. Spotify is still bigger, no matter what.

I mean, this is kinda great.  This IDEA will be a success in the long run due to the logistics behind it (and cryptocurrency becoming more widely acknowledged as a true potential to the dollar - I mean it has to) but this will not be nothing more than a leaping stone...which is necessary.  So it'll be interesting to see how this plays out and the marketing behind it.  

Artist lose so much money it's ridiculous.  This will help them keep more in their pocket and I can't complain about that if they're putting out the work and their fans are buying it.  No different than any job you or I have, except we dont have 1000 people behind us that also get some of the money (only taxes lol).

This is a terrible, terrible idea. I mean, almost as bad as Blockbuster not buying Netflix in the early two thousands. Haha! 

 

Isn't Jason Derulo the one who thought CATS would change the world?

So everything you have in apple music is not in Spotify?

No. The point was , what's the point of a new streaming platform without exclusive content , otherwise everyone is just gonna stay on Spotify ..... Tidal had exclusive content for a while but I guess not anymore....

Offer the same, at a better rate or with extra content so people leaves Spotify

I don’t work in the industry but it doesn’t seem like there’s a market need for yet another streaming service. 

[jj_boha]

Can’t artists and record companies pull out of Spotify? If this service leads to them pocketing more money then maybe they will migrate eventually 

[Prince Ali]

good luck with that!

When you buy an album is yours forever! Buy guys, buy!

All pullin Beyonce. Watch them debut at #1 on Billboard because of the streams from this new streaming site

Actually one of my biggest fears is that each record label company starts developing their own streaming platform to play their artists and we'll end up subscribing to 10 different music platforms to listen to our faves  

 

At the beginning we only had Netflix with content from different studios, but now you need to subscribe to HBO Max, Disney+, Paramount+, PeacockTV, Hulu, etc

But there's already Apple Music & Soundcloud premium 

 

lol jk I agree with you, but man I love Spotify they just always get it right, I am happy to give them $10/monthly for their algorithms ... curious what would be different with this platform. I am sure if artists are investing it's going to have some sort of artist to consumer concept

I’m a student so I only pay 4 dollars and I get Hulu included 

[phinyls]

i'm just afraid that someday artists might be exclusives to specific streaming services and we will feel drawn to have several things to pay like when netflix appeared you had a much wider range and now you "need" to have Netflix, hbo, disney plus, amazon prime video, blablabla...
