@NixBiks @ADragsdahl Helt enig! Jeg prøver at italesætte de forskellige tilgange, og er ked af hvis det er kommet til at fremstå som Collaborative Filtering er det eneste grundlag. Det er på ingen måde min opfattelse, og jeg mener også at nævne at det også er musikken og det vi skriver om musikken

For anyone interested in the Tidal stream-fraud case, this thread from the Norwegian Supreme Court by the journalist who exposed the case is extremely interesting reading

Tidal-saken i Høyesterett: Nå forklarer Tidals advokat hva internett er. Tar et langt innpust før han begynner.

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@Sharkyl @arnte @dhuey @Mark_Mulligan @stuartdredge Exactly! The best argument for user-centricis that it aligns the business models of streaming services and artists

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

På torsdag på @Kulturmoedet lancerer Kulturministeren sit idéforslag til afløseren for musikhandlingsplanen. Efterfølgende debatterer jeg vilkårene for det danske musikliv med et særdeles kompetent panel. #roskildeuni #forskning #dkpol

This should lead to a push for transparency in music streaming! TIDAL accused of deliberately faking Kanye West and Beyoncé streaming numbers https://t.co/MpqC0wBrNN

Journalists: if your take on Spotify’s IPO doesn’t even consider the impacts on different kinds of artists, you might not be ready to publish. (We’re here to help!)

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@Sharkyl @dhuman @arnte @ratpie Yes! The outliers are extremely important to this debate - on both the artist and the user side of the equation

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@Sharkyl @ratpie @dhuman @arnte Good question! Would probably have been a more valid approach

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@ratpie @Sharkyl @dhuman @arnte This means that the sample included no tracks from the top 100

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@ratpie @Sharkyl @dhuman @arnte The serious flaw Is that “The researcher took a random sample of 10,000 tracks to represent the whole material. This sample included tracks from 4493 individual artists and 22,496 streams (individual listening times), listened by 8051 user IDs.”

[Rasmus Rex @rasmusrex]

@Sharkyl @arnte @dhuman Very interesting! Have you seen the actual analysis?
