There’s this post that I found interesting:

[https://the.socialmusic.network/t/substacks-revenue-curve-and-the-long-tail/680/3?u=jay](https://the.socialmusic.network/t/substacks-revenue-curve-and-the-long-tail/680/3?u=jay&ref=all-about-music.ghost.io)

The gist of the post is that the digital economy mostly rewards the big corps that gatekeep the vast majority of music consumers, and smaller acts are forced to practically give away their artistic endeavors to get any kind of exposure. This pittance is especially irksome because the discovery tools on the majority of sites are a trashy afterthought.
