Music artists are earning less and less

Why does music artists earning less and less?

Because the costs to make an album today is very high
In the end of the 90's there was a lot of illegal MP3 music that could be downloaded and it continue.

Everything has going digital today. All music are streamed and that doesn't pay the artist as much as back in the days when there was no Internet.

Company's like Spotify and Apple music did an effort to let the user pay for what they want to listen to but the profits for the artist are lower than when the user buy an physical record.

Still there is made a lot of music but the music of an artist is sometimes just a hype that doesn't last for more than a year. Back in the days a song could easily survive for more than 2 years in the charts and still be in the top 10. People didn't have that much as now and were satisfied with the little choice there was. Now there is an oversupply of music. And people are changing faster from music taste than ever. Everything goes faster: what's hot today isn't tomorrow. And that's not different for music.

Android TV

Google's Android TV is a new platform in the area of ​Smart TV. Brands like Sony, Philips and Sharp will use this platform in the coming years.

Predecessor
The predecessor: Google TV was a flop. It wasn't intuitive enough, it went too slow and it was much too difficult. This is something Google has been working on very hard and so Android TV was born.

Possibilities
Android TV would be very easy to use in the first place.

There is a range of possibility as streaming apps for music and video.

There is access to Google Play Store where you have access to music, movies and games. Gaming can be done with the remote control, a game controller or your Android Smartphone or tablet. If you're already running a game on television you can safely continue playing it on the Smartphone or tablet and vice versa.

There is a Google Voice Search built in for those who do not want to search long but just want to tell the television what they searching for.

The Cast of Google Android TV offers the possibility of Chromecast. So you can send media from any device to the television long as it is compatible (ie controlled by an Android operating system). You can then continue working on the tablet or Smartphone.
