such as Stemp's are far from rare. A recent survey of orchestral members carried out by the Musicians' Union made for unhappy reading. Work undertaken by orchestra players to supplement their pay packets includes aromatherapy, odd-jobbing, taxi-driving, childcare and cleaning. These are highly trained professionals at the very top of their field. When was the last time your solicitor popped over to scrub the kitchen floor?
Meanwhile, the problems of stress, bullying and burnout have reached such

Alison Wenham has written to AIM members to encourage them to "make their own decision" about Apple Music - but has criticised the new streaming service for essentially "asking the independent music sector to hedge its risk, to fund their customer acquisition programme and to shoulder the financial burden for their global launch."

usic is also good at giving itself away. The EC's survey revealed 88 percent of Europeans that download or stream music can often, or always, find what they're looking for -- the highest rate of the five categories. This is the kind of number that worries many people in the music business. Look no further than some labels' and artists' efforts to limit or eliminate free listening on Spotify, the largest music subscription service in the world. Piracy still exists but captures little attention these days, almost as if it has been completely eviscerated (that's hardly the case).

ng and physical media can co-exist in a way physical and downloading couldn't," reckons Jacob. The change from physical media to downloading saw higher barriers: principally, Jacob explains, buying new kit -- you had to replace your Discman with an iPod, your hi-fi with a computer. But when you switch between downloading your music and streaming it, there's no new kit required -- you just keep using your PC, laptop, iPod or smartphone.
