"Nobody's making any money" in digital music


LOS ANGELES — Musicians continue to sing the blues over royalty revenues in the digital era, where success online continues to be a mixed bag.

"Nobody's making any money" in digital music — from songwriters and performers, to music services that had hoped to ease the transition from physical to digital with a thriving music economy, says Paul Resnikoff, editor of the Digital Music News website.
Digital music has hit a few false notes. For example:
• Pandora, the nation's most popular free music-streaming service, continues to gain more listeners yet lose money each quarter amid sky-high royalty payment charges. In its fourth fiscal quarter, Pandora reported a net loss of $30.4 million despite a 44% jump in revenue of $920.8 million. Pandora's monthly listeners: a record 81.5 million.

• Music download sales, once considered the savior to declining CD sales, have seen their sales peak. Unit sales fell 12.5% in 2014, according to Nielsen SoundScan, and look to fall even further this year as more consumers look to cloud-based subscription services.
• Spotify, the world's most popular paid music service, with 15 million subscribers, sits atop a heap of similar services struggling to find audiences, including Radio, Rhapsody and Beats Music. Still, Spotify, where singer Taylor Swift publicly yanked her music in 2014 over a royalty dispute, lost $80 million on revenues of about $1 billion in its most recent filing, for 2013.

Jay Z Close To Entering Streaming Music Business


Rapper, husband of Beyonce and all-around business mogul Jay Z (also known as Shawn Carter) is set to enter the growing streaming music industry. Late last week, a subsidiary of Jay Z's S. Carter Enterprises called Project Panther Bidcom Ltd. made a $56.2 million dollar bid for the Swedish streaming company Aspiro. Aspiro's board unanimously approved the deal. A vote from shareholders is still to come.

Aspiro actually has two streaming services offering audio and video, called WiMP and TIDAL. Aspiro claims to offers "HiFi quality audio" and says TIDAL gives users something they call "lossless sound quality," which allows users to enjoy music "the way it was intended by the artists."
Nevertheless, Wired magazine reports Aspiro's music subscription services currently have about half a million users, compared with streaming behemoth Spotify's 15 million paying customers.
