What have Spotify and the Tube got in common?

If you love what you do there’s no such thing as failure You just do it for the rest of your life until it works

The second biggest source of Streaming revenue after Spotify is not 🍏 but YouTube (assuming you count YT, which some music industry bodies don’t).

From Streaming

Approximately

No money in streaming they say. The 2024 numbers are in and apparently the global recorded music industry raked in twenty billion, four hundred million, three hundred and fifty two thousand dollars and seventy four cents.

One of the best practices you can learn in life is being genuinely happy for other people’s success. Especially when it has nothing to do with you. Really orients your mind in a super healthy foundation and attracts a lot of that same energy back to you
