@dshan I would subscribe to Spotify Premium if I knew the money went to artists. It doesn't so I don't. Baboom could change this, with time.

@dshan That's a great point of view. If you look at the industry right now, there is a clear demand for fairer business models. Also, BABOOM focuses on a direct connection between artists and fans. Besides the Fair Streaming Model, which is the most obvious innovation, we have launched Premium Following, which is a financial incentive for artists to promote a closer, more authentic relation to their fans. 10% of every Premium subscription goes to the Pro artists that the fans follow, creating almost like a stable income, regardless of sales or streams. In time we'll see artists invite their Premium fans for a beer, for exclusive shows, anything they come up with. We've made "communicating to Premium fans" a first class feature for artists. Anyone who's not a Premium fan will be out on the inner circle, and missing out on these exclusive experiences. Thanks for your comments!

@jessiewould We wanted to launch BABOOM the right way, in benefit of the artist. We could have much more easily licensed catalogues and be done with it, but we wouldn't be helping anyone. In the next few months you can expect to see a lot coming from BABOOM to create awareness, and the sheer demand for a fairer business model has already begun to attract trend setters. Stay close, you will not be disappointed!
