Research and Oral Presentation Outline Format

A.2                                                                                                                                                        The public probably learned there’s something called Spotify, and that it’s not Pandora. What it has highlighted for us is we need to do a better job explaining to artists how streaming benefits them. The point that’s been lost is that Spotify’s the fastest-growing revenue source the industry has. There are many artists to whom, through the labels, we’re paying out millions a year already. Those check sizes will just keep increasing. I’m certain that if we can get the billion-people-plus that are consuming music online and move them into a model like Spotify, the industry would be considerably bigger than it is today.                                                      http://www.billboard.com/articles/events/year-in-music-2014/6406334/spotify-daniel-ek-year-end-2014
