On episode 169 of Heavy Metal Philosophy we delve into the controversial statement made by Spotify CEO Daniel Ek regarding the cost of making music. Join us as we explore the implications of this statement on the music industry and the artists who create the music we love. I also recruited Sarah King who just independently funded an LP to break down the costs. She provides facts, figures, and thought-provoking discussion on the value of music creation in the digital age. Don't miss out on this important conversation!
