"The pittance #Spotify offers artists is well known. While having a huge catalog of recorded music at my fingertips is wonderful for me as a consumer, it also means that niche artists such as #Oneida are functionally competing for my attention not just with Beyoncé, but with Elvis and the Beatles.
#Music is both art and a #commodity. The rise of streaming has pushed music even further toward commodity status, nudging people away from close, attentive #listening."
