I find that take absurd. Niche long tail interest stuff is the best. Would you really claim that the plethora of smaller groups on Spotify that can make it work are inferior to the mainstream radio acts that got almost all the attention previously?
- JuanPosadas 3y agoThey're not automatically generated.
- jncfhnb 3y agoThat is irrelevant to the discussion that tools which enable cheaper production will allow for more individually directed art for smaller niche interests.
- singleshot_ 3y agoNiche, long-tail interest stuff is, by definition, garbage to the vast majority of people, though. I understand that you may be interested in collecting chicken bones, but no matter how cheaply you can make a chicken bone documentary, I will not watch it. Meanwhile, we delve deeper into the audience-of-one dystopia that has unfurled around us. I believe we took great value from having cultural lodestars to set and recalibrate our society’s vision, and we appear to be on the cusp of replacing that entirely with autogenerated nonsense.
