Also noticed some playlist transfer apps surging up the charts. I think anger with Spotify is real. Skeptical it will lead to notable loss of market share, especially in the US
My experience is that when you ‘take your music down’ from Spotify, it can take a minimum of 30 days and in many cases well over that. While that seems odd in a digital environment, most artists are not dealing directly with Spotify, rather they release music through their labels and distributors who then it into the streamers and I guess the reverse is true on the way out.
This is really intersting to see how consumer sentiment might be shifting even if the market share impact isnt immediate. The Qobuz spike feels like a canary in the coal mine moment. I think youre spot on about the qualitative versus quantitative approach mattering more to certain users. Also the Massive Attack situation is pretty revealing about the complexity of these catalog deals and who actualy has control. Would be curious to see if more artists run into the same roadblocks when trying to pull their work.
