New methods to compensate artists in music streaming platforms
研究了音乐流媒体平台中艺术家流行度的测量问题,通过公理刻画了几类流行度指数,并联系到Spotify和Deezer的新版税模型,为更公平地分配平台收入提供理论依据。
We study the problem of measuring the popularity of artists in music streaming platforms. We uncover the space of popularity indices upon exploring the implications of several axioms capturing principles with normative appeal. As a result, we characterize several families of indices. Our characterizations might help to address the rising concern in the music industry to explore new methods that reward artists (from the revenues platforms raise by charging users) more appropriately. We actually connect our families to the new royalties models, recently launched by Spotify and Deezer.
