After Will airs his grievances about "promotional partnerships", we smooth our brains by emptying thoughts about streaming and the labour economy of music today, in anticipation of the next episode on which we'll launch this podcast. Is it even worth it for a small indie artist to distribute on streaming? We cover the question of per-stream payouts, the UMAW and the push for a Penny Per Stream, whether or not DIY artists would make more money today or in 2001, and more.
Recs: Carson - album Slump by Improvement Movement, Will - book Bedroom Rapper by Rollie Pemberton aka: Cadence Weapon
Correction: at 24:41 we share an anecdote about streaming Kenny Wheeler's music around the time of his passing. Wheeler died on September 18, 2014, and Spotify launched in Canada on September 30, 2014. That means our anecdote is probably off-base, but we still think the scenario is relevant to the episode.
