#Music streaming - A mini 🧵. According to @IFPI_org's latest Global Music Report, worldwide recorded music revenues totaled $25.9 billion last year, up 18.5 percent from the previous year’s total of $21.9 billion.
Last year alone, 80 million people jumped on the streaming bandwagon, bringing the total of global subscription users to 523 million by the end of 2021.
Despite the fact that, thanks to streaming services, it has never been cheaper and more convenient to listen to music, music #piracy is still prevalent across the world’s largest music markets.

Now Out in Paperback! “#China Goes to #Sea: #Maritime Transformation in Comparative Historical Perspective”

amazon.com/China-Goes-Sea…

@NavalWarCollege @ChinaMaritime is proud to publish this new version w/ @NavalInstitute @USNIBooks!

Come for the #maps, stay for the #history...
Honored to have #JonathanSpence’s endorsement:

“The maritime #history of #China has long been a neglected field..China Goes to Sea bring[s] that knowledge-gap to an end..will be an indispensable companion to those readers seeking to understand where China’s navy may be heading.”
As European #naval powers & even the @USNavy struggle with ship numbers, #China has gone to #sea.

Represents the reversal of a great historical trend that began 600 years ago, when China withdrew from the seas & European naval expansion spread Western influence around the globe.

2/ The one death and all 50 crew members kidnapped took place on for which the nearest coastal state was African. The current whereabouts and safety of 20 kidnapped sailors are not included in this report and this information needs to be urgently ascertained.
3/ The conditions of the other 30 and the means by which their release was secured are not explained (only the date of their release is given). Details such as where they were taken, how they were treated, and if they were kept with other crew/hostages must be followed up on...

#Whales & #dolphins are facing many manmade existential threats: depletion of food by overfishing, drop in birthrates due to industrial pollution, killing by discarded fishnets & plastics etc

Over 300,000 #whales and #dolphins are killed as bycatch in #fishnets every year. People eating #seafood is the reason that fishing trawlers go to sea & cause these deaths of whales & dolphins. #Boycott #seafood. It’s #seas #piracy
Watch #Seaspiracy

Every year at least 50 million #sharks are killed as #bycatch in commercial #fishing. 90% of sharks have been lost in the last few decades. Eating seafood contributes to the bykill of sharks and other #sealife.

Let's start our #GlobalEChats on #music!

Among our #discussion topics: 1. #Stakeholders in music and what happens to them? 2. #Production of music 3. #Consumption of music 4. New #technology out there!
Firstly, let's talk about how scary #technology and #advancement can be to #music.

Some stats:
The US lost $12.5 billion a year in total sales due to pirated music.

71k jobs were lost; $2.7bn in annual earnings; $1.1bn of that would have been earned by the industry.

But as with any #tech #disruption, there are always negative externalities.

In the #music industry, most of the bad press came from #piracy. Sites like Napster and P2P torrenting were rampant back in the day.
