Streaming music, maybe the web is one way to find it

based on print version of Guardian today, here is link to web page
http://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/feb/19/slave-to-the-algorithm-how-music-fans-can-reclaim-their-playlists-from-spotify


thing is, the popcast is only about three minutes in and they start complaining about different versions of YouTube uploads so the stats are not comparable. Why do they need this info? Are they part of a community where opinion is shared? through likes or attention or suggestions?

Not the sort of aspect that ever comes over in Guardian print. If the message is DEPEND ON THE CRITIC IN PRINT IGNORE THE WEB then this means you can review your own book

seems a good idea I will think on
