G+_Steve Martin Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 My first thought was that her fans might not be as happy about this as she thinks. But as I think about the actual process, I think she may be onto something very cool. No matter what service you use, you could purchase/stream a song and the service would pay the artist according to the artists plan. The key will be granularity. Meaning that different artists might require different payments for stream vs. purchase vs purchase DRM free, for instance. It will be interesting to follow.
