- What are the major labels doing with their playlist brands, and what potential is there for indies to match them?
- Will playlists become a new pressure point for streaming services when negotiating licensing deals?
- Playola. Will paying for tracks to be added to influential playlists become common, and if not, how else can curators make money?
- Brands and playlists: what’s the potential for brands to use playlists to reach an influential audience of music fans?
