Panel Discussion

Is Alexa the “Saviour” of the Music Industry?

With the growth of smart speakers sales, a growing number of consumers are now accessing music by asking Alexa, Google or Siri for their favourite tracks. How will that new revolution impact the music market? What are the benefits of such consumption? Is there a risk for letting AI and algorithms decide what people will listen to? Which music genres will be left on the side of the road?
