Streaming market just fine, says UK competition regulator

CMU’s Andy Malt and Chris Cooke review key events in music and the music business from the last week. Well, this week we are looking at just one of the biggest and most interesting news stories of the last week, because last Tuesday the UK’s Competition & Markets Authority published an interim report based on its market study into the streaming music sector - and given it’s 97 pages long, we figured that was probably enough material to fill an edition of Setlist.
