November 17, 2014 #CommsChat on Spotify and music industry comms

Spotify has been in the news recently for Taylor Swift’s removal of her music catalogue from the platform, prompting CEO Daniel Ek to reply by documenting Spotify’s transparency and artist relations.

This week, on #CommsChat we’ll discuss the following:

• Should the music industry as a whole be more transparent about sales and licensing?
• Will Taylor Swift’s removal of her music from Spotify damage the platform’s reputation?
• How should Spotify respond to this and potential future issues?
• How has Spotify managed its artist relations thus far? Will that have to change?
• What reputation do streaming/non-premium services have in general? Is it warranted?

Join us! We tweet from @CommsChat and #CommsChat takes place from 8-9pm UK time – for worldwide times, go here. Anyone can take part in the discussion – simply follow the hashtag here or on Twitter. If you can’t make the chat or would like to revisit it, a transcript will go up on Tuesday morning.

We’d love to hear your suggestions for future topics for #CommsChat – get in touch with Brittany by email or Twitter if you have any ideas.
