How YouTube Is Stealing from Musicians
- je42 12y ago> YouTube is taking almost twice the “bad old” music companies’ cut, for basically doing no more than hosting on a server. Uhm. While the percentage might be considered high. However, youtube does provide more than just hosting: - Providing a system to publish and get revenue from ads - Marketing ( with Discovery ) - Community Services ( Forum / Comments / Sharing / User Identity )
- pnt12 12y agoI agree especially with the discovery part. Nearly everything I listen to on a regular basis was discovered on either YouTube or spotify. However, he does have a point, musicians aren't making any money out of streaming, which is unfair.
