etcanada.comDuran Duran lead singer Simon Le Bon has had enough of audio streaming services. Le Bon insisted “there’s going to be a hole” in the next generation of artists if musicians continue to receive little money per stream on services such as Spotify and Apple Music.
The singer told NME, without naming a specific service: “Artists need to get paid properly for music that is streamed, that’s where the money should be coming from. “What do artists get?
