Description
Steve and Stuart rummage through the TPOM inbox and pull out some brand new listeners' questions to answer (send yours into us here: thepriceofmusicpodcast@gmail.com) –
Does the money from a stream get split evenly?
Do artists get paid if a festival is cancelled?
How do music-making AIs get trained?
What is Spotify's Discovery Mode?
PLUS: they go over the UK government's reforms for artists.
And in the special post-show lock-in section just for our Patreon Superfans, Steve and Stu chat about:
Is the music industry really ready for the AI revolution or is it about to be caught on the hop?
How many author pseudonyms has Steve used over the years?
Which fan club was Stu in, and why did someone burp at him down a telephone as a result?
As ever, we welcome your feedback, emails and – in particular – any questions you might have about how the music biz works!
