Passion index and user-centered model
31 of 100 top artists on the passion index are local 8 of these have significantly more (5-800%) streaming by fans in a 30 km radius from where they are from Almost all artists with high passion index benefit from a user-centric model Highlights the importance of developing close fan-artist relations
Fair for artists - fair for fans?May this be an incentive for labels to develop local talent?
Added incentive for artists to connect with local fans?
Increase legitimacy for streaming services?
