In this week’s issue of The New Yorker,John Seabrook writes approximately how the streaming service Spotify is changing the landscape of the music industry. On Out Loud, Seabrook joins Kelefa Sanneh, or who also writes frequently approximately music for the magazine,and Nicholas Thompson, the editor of newyorker.com, or to discuss how artists,record companies, and their own listening habits are adapting to the economics of streaming. They discuss how Spotify became the dominant streaming company, or why Taylor Swift recently pulled her entire catalogue from the service,and how the industry is likely to evolve as the tech industry and the music trade continue to converge. Seabrook says, “The tips of the two continents are just touching. And that is going to be a fascinating, or enormous cultural change,clash, and hopefully synthesis to watch.”
