Le désastre Spotify

Suite au poteau vantant le succès de Netflix contre le piratage, j'ai lu beaucoup de gens encenser Spotify, le présentant comme un meilleur modèle, une idée de ce que pourrait être une licence globale...

Oui, pour l'utilisateur c'est très pratique et confortable d'avoir accès à toute la musique que l'on aime au même endroit, et de n'avoir à payer qu'un abonnement très raisonnable. Mais tout cela se fait sur le dos des artistes et des labels. À part les très grosses maisons de disques (en gros les membres du Merlin Network), qui ont réussi à négocier des deals plus intéressants, en échange de l'accès à leur catalogue, le streaming ne rapporte plus rien aux artistes, tant la part de revenue qui leur est dédiée est devenue ridicule, tirée d'année en année vers le bas grâce à la position de monopole de Spotify.

Mais c'est un cercle vicieux, car comme tout le monde est sur Spotify, si un artiste ne souhaite pas y diffuser sa musique, c'est comme s'il disparaissait, la plupart des gens ne voulant pas faire l'effort d'aller chercher sa musique sur d'autres plateformes.

Les artistes doivent donc désormais accepter que produire de la musique (et donc parfois travailler pendant des mois et des années, y investir de l'argent, du temps, de l'énergie, son âme…) ne vaut rien, c'est simplement devenu un outil promotionnel pour se faire connaître, et plus tard gagner de l'argent autrement : vendre des produits dérivés, des concerts (sauf que bon, depuis un an et demi c'est pas la folie...), faire des partenariats avec des marques… Ce que tout le monde n'a pas forcément envie de faire, et pour des raisons parfois très légitimes (peur de monter sur scène, volonté de préserver son intégrité, etc.).

Pire encore, Spotify encourage une écoute « passive », c'est-à-dire qu'on va se laisser guider par des playlists faites sur mesures, sans réellement se préoccuper de qui a produit la musique (sauf en cas de gros coup de cœur). Les artistes deviennent donc peu à peu des créateurs anonymes de contenus taillés pour remplir les attentes des utilisateurs et correspondre aux caractéristiques recherchées par les algorithmes.

Parfois même, les labels ou artistes doivent payer pour apparaître dans des playlists populaires, et avoir une chance d'être connu du grand public.

Autre phénomène inquiétant : la durée moyenne des morceaux a réduit de manière significati

I am so sick of Meghan McCain continuously spewing pro-Zionist BS, I will hereby, once and for all, compile a list of video sources (Youtube) and media outlets that people can/should watch for anyone who wants to become conversant with the Palestinian cause and their struggles for freedom

Just to preface, I will not comment to any Zionists who choose to leave comments behind here on this post. I will ignore them but I will downvote their posts just to do my due diligence!

My mama always told me, pictures speak a thousand words. But videos speak a million and undoctored videos/ documentary-style videos speak a billion. So I just want to spread awareness on this by my sharing a list of essential videos that speak to the struggles experienced by Palestinians.
