Critique of the Music Industry; Spotify; Streaming Services, Etc.

There are lots of typos here for legal reasons

 If the music industry intends to create a welcome and hospitable environment that creates wealth for its musicians there will be no other option but to make more effort on the part of the business to pay out more royalty. If there is no circumstance or barter between artist and business there will be no difference between music and business in the future. With that in mind there are several monetary tactics that must take place in order to reveal the most potent and absolute version of history that the unfairness of music streaming created for musical artists out of thin air, as we saw with Metallica attempting to thwart a lack of understanding with the Napster illegal download service in the 90s and it's legal implication through Spotify in the future following.

My proposal is a new payment system, fair to the artist, not the record company and fair in price.

Through account systems I propose a 50cent first play once a month with two (as in 2) time 25 cent play after that, per account, per month, at a rate of maybe one thousand (as in 1,000) plays. And then return to the normal rate at which Spotify charges listeners based on their money grab monopoly in music. And by all consideration, all music streaming services have a serious foothold on the service of music streaming they provide.

So no matter what, we all win, they lose nothing, because they've gained so much from so many people, some of who are starving artists without a job because of the Covid-19 pandemic and can no longer attribute safety to going out in public with a crowd and perform their art in public.

Considering the low end of the streaming service payout, there are artists with less tha 100k streama, I believe anyone with less than 1k plays should be payed way less because they may have repeat listeners and may, probably receive only 50 dollar checks.

Someone with 100k plays makes approximately 2,000 dollars based on that play count on Spotify and will have been ripped off by Spotify and competitors based on the current price point. So if we are to calculate 1 billion plays it's almost 800k in funds to the artist and record label per play. So percentage is based on record label.

Most of the independent musicians cannot afford to not be musicians that have made a career off of selling CDs which is possible thanks to Bandcamp.com

So to not beat around the bush the artists at the higher, as in hundreds of millions of plays are being ripped off most. If we too calculate per capita, the amount of play a hundred million play song gets we could probably concert at least 90% of those plays are from single listens and that is where Spotify rips you off. We could 50% of that 90% are repeat listeners that through Spotify subscription do in fact give them more for less even though they are repeat listeners, they may listen less popular music and probably don’t not want to buy the music, they probably rather have a physical copy or a system that allows their own download to be repeated without a subscription service, I don't believe spotify has done anything but hurt the music industry with misering and greed behind a simple paywall with hundreds of millions of subscribers and huge percentage of those subs listen to less than 1,000 songs a month. If you need me to calculate for you, you may a mathematician to calculate in in accuracy.

My suggestion is to subpoena the Spotify business by international law to test assets with statistics to see and understand with American understanding and test to see if it is indeed monopoly. In theory Spotify cornered the market and forced into a style of business that no-one consumer level asked for and even provoked streaming services for video, such as the beginning of Netflix streaming.

What a fair price for backpay is, is for the artists to decide. I'd suggest bringing several vetted pop musicians on a witness stand and suggest a backpay price percentage based on play count for the 3 main streaming services and through that deduction there will be understanding that the price was set too low and too much fluid cash was absorbed and not given back to the musical artist community.

I propose a fair 3 tier setup to vote on the fairness of the proposal with a tight with reasoning as to why in inquiry that they deserve that much money and do this with 5 100 million plus artist genres with the most popular musicians to ascertain the depth of which amount is fair.

Anecdote: Music quality is also in question, there are few ways of hearing music at CD as in physical album 16 bit studio quality bit rate lossless file, even cars have ditched CD quality audio in trade of quality to wireless Bluetooth, this is a sociologically redundant move as quality for listeners of high caliber understanding and that number in the 100s of millions, and are forced through social conditioning to give in to socially unavailable quality to or from the way it was as a staple of quality that been lost because of Spotify. 

Not only has the windows computer undecidely ruined music, the software companies believe hardware obsolete but provide no alternative to CD quality.

After all consideration, please take this message as a warning to the future of music, art and history. Anyone with any understanding of art knows suicide happens without it.
