It's that time of year again to take a look back at the influential music business stories from 2021, see how the predictions from last year fared, and have a look forward to the trends and predictions for 2022. Among the things I'll discuss in Podcast 401 include:

Music centers shifting to new places on the globe

The $9.99 streaming price

Spotify getting into video

TikTok peaking

The future of immersive audio

The move towards hi-res audio

Artists and their streaming numbers

The next big trend in music

Music NFTs

As always you'll hear not only my outlook on these topics but what I'm seeing that makes me think that way.

Here's to the last podcast of 2021. Once again, thank you for your support.
