It's really not that complicated... youtube.com/shorts/HY_DQFl…

Spotify paid out a record-breaking $9 billion to the music industry in 2023. But I got a lot of questions on if this only benefits the big artists. The answer: nearly half, $4.5bn was generated by independent artists. This is a major shift for the industry, showing the changing landscape. I decided to do a video on this and some of the other payout questions I am getting. Let me know what you think.

Today, Apple finally let the USB-C port come to iPhones, which is a huge win for consumers. But let’s be clear, this is only happening because they were forced to comply with @EU_Commission legislation. This is a BIG deal and shows the power of effective regulation. A thread:
