The enshittification of music, by Rick Beato
(www.youtube.com)
The phenomenon of online platforms gradually degrading the quality of their services, often by promoting advertisements and sponsored content, in order to increase profits. (Cory Doctorow, 2022, extracted from Wikitionary) source
We discuss how predatory big tech platforms live and die by luring people in and then decaying for profit.
We also discuss how naturally open technologies like the Fediverse can be susceptible to corporate takeovers, rugpulls and subsequent enshittification.
Bookmarking this comment so I can look up the artists later! Always looking for new music.
I think part of his these-although he doesn't address it directly- is that even though there is still good music coming out it's likely going to get drowned out by the flood of mediocrity because it's all coming out so fast.
