ElementalSo what makes streaming music ābackground musicā and not cds or radio which were the most popular way to listen to music before streaming?
It wasnāt. It was mp3s. Which is personally my favorite era of music. The album era. Taylor swift latest album a great example of background music from a superstar adapting to streaming era. Also drakes past few projects.

Free YoungBoyThe anti-art take imo would be to pretend music has no value if itās not classic or memorable in 10 years.
It happens on this site all the time. An artist will have a 2 year run and then people will s*** on them for not having a Kanye type career like the 2 years of music they put out that people loved means nothing
See it all the time with rap and hip hop especially. Itās like if youāre not constantly peaking youāre ass and were always ass even if you have people hits they know every word to

Are you going to pretend every song made in ANY era was always great? No you just had more curation and people donāt want some journalist or radio host curating their music they wanna do it themselves
Man a computer is curating what you listen to

americana šæMar 19Ā·1 replyJim HalpertStreaming has conditioned listeners to see music as background content only. So thatās what is being made
Nothing memorable or challenging.
No incentive for young artists to make truly great s***. So no more stars.
Short form*

Streaming has absolutely led to everything being short form to increase engagement and thus money
Personal attachment to art that existed with physical media just canāt exist in a world where something ābetterā always exist for each varied moment

It shows how many different people are listening to you on a monthly basis

Man a computer is curating what you listen to
The ācomputerā just says you listen to x artist, other people who listen to x artist also like Y and Z artist, so weāll recommend you Y and Z.
Thatās essentially what the algorithm is. Idk why yall try to make it out to be some boogie man.
Thatās better than some suit at a label dictating what everyone hears
