🎵 Spotify now wants to decide who gets first access to concert tickets. Ticketmaster says its queues aren’t quite as random as fans thought. And major record labels are worth tens of billions.
So who really controls music now?
In this episode of Listener Land, Louis, Geoff and Wayne discuss Spotify’s new superfan ticketing system, Ticketmaster’s controversial queue process, Prince’s unreleased vault recordings, Universal Music’s rejected £48 billion takeover offer, and whether fans are gradually losing control of the music they love.
We also ask whether live music has become too polished, whether artists should receive priority treatment over casual listeners, and if unreleased recordings should be released after an artist has passed away.

Should Spotify reward its biggest fans with exclusive ticket access, or should everyone get an equal chance?
