Music Ally Focus #22: the outcome of the UK Parliamentary Inquiry into artists' streaming income is starting to emerge – what will the impact be on artists, streaming platforms and labels?

Music business news, analysed in brief by Music Ally's Stuart Dredge and Joe Sparrow.

British politician Kevin Brennan wrote a guest article for UK newspaper the Independent which offers a few hints on the outcome of the UK Parliamentary Inquiry into artists' streaming income. The British music industry will now be preparing for a big lobbying battle around applying equitable remuneration (ER) to streaming, although this is not a big surprise given the issue’s prominence in the hearings of the UK’s music streaming economics inquiry.  Joe and Stu try to figure out the most likely outcome; wonder if labels should be worried - or if they have an other card to play.
