Now Spotify has released an in-depth video to educate music professionals about the risks of artificial streaming, Watch the video below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"993\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gTXO0QNEXgE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Why artificial streaming never actually works? \u201cWhen we detect artificial streams, we may do things like withholding royalties and correcting streaming numbers and chart positions. It may even result in your music being removed from Spotify\u201d says Spotify. You cannot pay to get on editorial playlists. User-generated playlists that claim to do so are routinely removed by Spotify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spotify explains their goal to protect artists and rights holders, \u201cWe\u2019re trying to make sure it\u2019s a level playing field. We believe it\u2019s only fair that every artist has an opportunity to find listeners. And we want to make sure that artists and rights holders are paid fairly for their work.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Streaming revolutionized music discovery. It diversified sounds, and created opportunities for emerging artists to connect with fans in a competitive market. This important transformation the industry has achieved should be protected so we can make it work to everyone\u2019s benefit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join us in taking these important steps to build a sustainable industry and a level-playing field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5201,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"twitterCardType":"","cardImageID":0,"cardImage":"","cardTitle":"","cardDesc":"","cardImageAlt":"","cardPlayer":"","cardPlayerWidth":0,"cardPlayerHeight":0,"cardPlayerStream":"","cardPlayerCodec":""},"categories":[25],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 -
