Taylor Swift's new album "The Tortured Poets Department" is almost guaranteed to be a bestseller. But no matter how well it does, it won't be the way Swift earns most of her money this year. In fact, the remaining leg of her Eras tour will add much more to Swift's billion-dollar fortune. Swift's Eras Tour brought in more than $1 billion in ticket sales last year over its 66 dates. Swift's cut is unknown, but based on industry standards, she will surely earn nine figures in 2024 from ticket sales.

Ukrainian soldiers spent 10 weeks learning to use the US military's Patriot air-defense system. Business Insider recently visited Fort Sill, Oklahoma, where Patriot training took place last year, and spoke with two US Army instructors who were involved in the program.

Music licensing talks are heating up between TikTok and Universal Music Group as negotiations have left the conference room and entered the public sphere. "Their core mission is to generate as much money as they can from their recordings for their shareholders," David Herlihy, a copyright lawyer and music industry professor at Northeastern University, told BI. The company is in the process of launching a dedicated streaming app, TikTok Music, and has worked closely with artists on influencer listening parties, livestreams, and in-person events. But TikTok, as a global social giant, is an important product for music artists and labels. This is why the music industry is seeking to capture more value."

The streaming world is fighting to court young users who want a blended social-music experience. SoundCloud isn't alone among streamers in embracing TikTok-style song discovery and active listening. And, TikTok itself runs a "For You" page in its newly released music-streaming app, TikTok Music, which is currently available in five countries. SoundCloud has long encouraged active listening in its app by putting commenting front and center, offering a messaging tool, and encouraging artist-to-fan interactions. She added: "Younger consumers are more interested in having a more social streaming experience."

Now, it's using that influence to kick-start its own music-streaming app, TikTok Music. Like TikTok's interface, TikTok Music includes a "For You" feed of recommended content. This sets it apart from leading streamers like Spotify and Apple Music, which have limited in-app social features. It's still very early days for TikTok Music, and its rivals have a big headstart — Apple Music and Spotify are each in more than 100 countries. TikTok has not yet said when TikTok Music will roll out to other countries including the US.

Some market shareThe music streaming market is currently dominated by Swedish giant Spotify and Apple Music. Spotify commands almost 31% of the global streaming market with Apple Music following with 13.7%, according to the International Music Summit Business Report 2023. But Cirisano said that heavy TikTok users could convert into TikTok Music users if they are using other services such as Spotify. Still, Woo of Phillip Securities Research said TikTok Music presents a "low risk" for Spotify and Apple Music. Spotify and Apple Music did not respond to CNBC's requests for comment.

Spotify CEO Daniel Ek said concerns from labels and music companies about AI are "legitimate." His comments come after AI-generated songs that sound like popular artists went viral this month. The music industry has "legitimate concerns" about songs generated by AI, the CEO of Spotify said. Daniel Ek addressed the industry's growing unease about AI music in Spotify's first quarter earnings call Tuesday and said it's working with partners to come up with solutions. Grimes, the former partner of Elon Musk and mother to two of his children, tweeted Monday that she'd share half the royalties from any AI-generated song using her voice.
The company is using its editorial influence on TikTok, Resso, and CapCut to promote SoundOn songs. Would it eventually roll out a standalone music streaming service, as a May 2022 trademark filing from its parent company ByteDance suggested? The company is now offering editorial placements to some SoundOn artists across TikTok, ByteDance's music streaming app Resso, and its video-editing app CapCut. These placements, which include being featured in high-traffic playlists, offer SoundOn users a unique path to being discovered. TikTok's parent ByteDance previously sought to hire for a similar A&R role in Jakarta, Music Business Worldwide reported in May.
Several of this year's Grammy nominees, including "abcdefu" singer Gayle and R&B artist Muni Long, rose in popularity after influencers and everyday users posted TikTok videos with their music. Even as the music industry gathers in Los Angeles to celebrate artists and their songs at Sunday's Grammy awards, the relationship between hitmaker TikTok and music labels is showing signs of strain. As deals with the major music companies expire, the labels are looking to receive some of TikTok's ad revenue, according to Tatiana Cirisano, music industry analyst for Midia Research. One music industry insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said "it’s open to interpretation" why this is happening now. "TikTok has become really integral to the way that younger people relate to music, discover music and consume it,” Cirisano said.

TikTok is an essential promotional tool for music artists and record labels. Watch a full replay of Insider's webinar on TikTok's impact on the music industry, featuring execs from TikTok, Universal Music Group, and UnitedMastersFor some, the hyper-focus on TikTok can be draining. "The argument from TikTok's side is TikTok is now so important to the music industry that they can't afford to not have their music on the platform." Read more about the 'complicated' and codependent relationship between TikTok and music rights holdersBut the industry's attention on TikTok isn't unfounded. Read about why TikTok music marketers are turning to general-interest accounts to promote songsCreating TikTok music challenges to spark user-generated videosAnd some marketers are opening the door for social-media users who wouldn't traditionally be considered influencers to get paid to promote music.
"If you can incorporate a TikTok Live while you're actually live on the air broadcasting, there's something really cool about it," he said. She added: "I noticed a huge spike in the people that were listening to my radio station or that just knew of the radio station. Like other incumbents in the music world, radio companies are now determining the best way to use TikTok to grow their businesses. Meanwhile, SiriusXM, which streams over satellite, digital, and via partnerships with auto manufacturers, launched last year a dedicated TikTok radio channel in partnership with the short-video app. As for the radio talent themselves, they're well aware of the impact that TikTok can have on their careers.
"We're really thrilled with the response the station has had," Steve Blatter, the senior vice president and general manager of music programming at SiriusXM, told Insider. "We did go through a very hefty host-selection process," said William Gruger, who works on global music programming at TikTok. Branching out to a younger audienceSiriusXM views TikTok Radio as a path to attracting the next generation of subscribers. "Our first reaction to who might be listening to TikTok Radio is a younger audience, which I think it definitely is," Steinbock said. For the TikTok Radio hosts themselves, preparing for a SiriusXM recording session often just means bingeing on TikTok like a typical user.

All of these promotional functions have benefited the music industry, boosting streams on platforms like Spotify or Apple Music and helping artists grow their fan bases. The company filed a US trademark application in May for a potential music-streaming product called "TikTok Music," Insider first reported. Licensing negotiations to either expand Resso or introduce TikTok Music into other markets are underway, a person with direct knowledge of the process told Insider. Licensing negotiations are nearly constant in the music industryByteDance and TikTok already have existing agreements in place with major record labels and publishers like Warner Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, the National Music Publishers' Association, and ICE. Last quarter, YouTube's head of music wrote that the company paid out $6 billion to the music industry over a 12-month period.
ReutersThe explosion of TikTok's popularity has pushed the app into the biggest technology companies' focus. Google, Apple and Microsoft all have TikTok accounts, with over 8.5 million likes between the three. While Apple has more than 1.3 million fans on the platform, Google and Microsoft have 403,000 and 143,000, respectively. Big tech companies are finding success on TikTok by not only creating personable content, but by creating content that follows trends already on TikTok — often related to corporate humor and professional advice. While more users are flocking to TikTok, Easter said big tech firms could miss out if they don't invest in content creation.
Bilanţul exploziei de la rafinăria Petromidia situată în zona Midia-Năvodari, pe litoralul românesc, s-a agravat. Prefectul de Constanţa a anunţat că angajatul dat dispărut a fost găsit mort, iar patru muncitori de la rafinărie s-au ales cu arsuri şi traumatisme şi au fost spitalizaţi.

Deezer, a Paris-based music streaming service, recently made a significant investment in DREAMSTAGE in a symbiotic deal that will fuel both companies' growth. DREAMSTAGE, a ticketed live music streaming platform launched in the spring of 2020, has plans to reverse this fate and to even go as far as transforming the traditional live music business model for years to come. Now, the startup has caught the attention of the Paris-based music streaming service Deezer, which houses a catalog of 73 million tracks, including content from major record labels like Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group. "Even when live concerts start again, live streaming will become a natural addition to live shows," Albrecht wrote. The live music streaming industry is expected to generate $6.4 billion by 2027, according to MIDiA Research.

România deja este pe poziţia a doua în topul producătorilor de petrol şi gaze din Europa, a declarat miercuri Adrian Zuckerman, ambasadorul SUA în România, la Conferinţa Anuală “Parteneriatul Strategic Româno-American în domeniul securităţii cibernetice”. Potrivit acestuia, anul viitor va începe extracţia gazelor din Marea Neagră, care ulterior va creşte la capacitate maximă, la fel ca şi centrala nucleară de la Cernavodă, care va ajunge să lucreze la capacitate maximă. Astfel, România va deveni cel mai mare producător şi exportator de energie din Europa, consideră ambasadorul, scrie Calea Europeană. – României) de gaze naturale din platforma Mării Negre sunt foarte însemnate!
