All of the music industry's measurable results from last year are in and the good new is, I was right...a lot. It's still somewhat of a mixed bag for amateur musicians but frankly, that's par for the course. A company called "Next Big Sound" performs analytics on this like YouTube views, Facebook "Likes" and other forms of non-currency measurements of success. According to them, the main-est of the mainstream dominate pretty heavily in all fields which should be no surprise to anyone. But the interesting thing (something I've been right about) is that streaming services seem to be the places they promised to be; platforms for lesser knowns to gather speed. YouTube, though still dominated by the mainstream, there is still room for undiscovered artists to go viral with a song recorded in their bedroom. Although no social media platform or streaming services has made up for the money/potential money lost in the industry's flux, it seems that we're on the right track.
