Is Spotify really listening to artists “Loud & Clear?”
Last week, Spotify launched “Loud & Clear,” a website marketed by the streaming platform as an attempt to pull back the curtain on how it compensates artists. In its mission statement, “Loud & Clear” says it “aims to increase transparency by sharing new data on the global streaming economy and breaking down the royalty system, the players, and the process.” The site’s launch comes as the controversy over streaming royalties continues to build.
