"A study by economist (and occasional Reg contributor) Will Page sheds new light on the relationship between streaming services and piracy. Artists who withhold from Spotify may suffer from increased piracy, he finds. Since Page works for Spotify, the words of the great prophet M'andee-rice Davies spring to mind - but it's worth a read nonetheless, as there’s a lot of new research here"
I think this study is very important and that artists should be aware of certain policies that could harm their brand. I think big corporate businesses should be studied more often and should be open with their policies to keep artists from possible ramifications in the future.
