All the world’s music online is at the same time both a beautiful dream and a huge nuisance:
Almost a hundred thousand new songs appear on streaming services daily.
“About half of the tracks were listened to less than ten times a year, and about a quarter 10-100 times a year. In total, there were about 140 million such tracks. Conversely, only 500,000 different tracks were listened to over a million times a year.”
“Luminate did not report this time how many tracks were not listened to even once last year. According to estimates based on previous figures, this ‘dead weight’ would constitute up to 25% of all tracks.”
