What about a podcast mainly made up of dolphin noises as part of a way of teaching you how to relax , mediate and ease your way into a state of blissful harmony?!

I only know a limited number of her songs but my parents and aunts and Uncles who of whom are boomers are very familiar with her and most like her. I honestly wouldn't know which genre of music is most financially lucrative but given the rapid expansion in podcasting I am wondering if long term that will become spotifys main business rather than musical? Podcasting seems to be a real expanding growth area .Most individual podcasts aren't as financially rewarding as Joe Rogans but in future I think big name podcasters are going to be almost as famous as household names in television. Yes there are some duds in podcasting like the so called royal rebels Harry and Meghan who seem to be a disappointment to Spotify but on the whole the sector seems buoyant. I wouldn't be at all surprised if podcasts end up being Spotifys core business rather than music eventually is what I am trying to say!! Music seems most profitable when it's live tours. Despite any opinion I may have on Joe Rogan I am not principled enough nor inclined to cancel my Spotify subscription Other people are free to do as they wish that's the much lauded virtue consumer choice and consumer power . But myself ?I love podcasts about politics and sex far too much!

Ooh!! Seems Joni Mitchell was far from alone yesterday in making moves to seperate themselves from Spotify . A lot of people tried to cancel their subscription apparently.

This whole issue has certainly provoked plenty of discussion and colourful reactions online!

Oh I'm sure she has more than that!!! I think the wider story is going to run and run potentially

Will you be stocking up on some metaphorical popcorn?!

It's very high stakes a move. None of his options now are good. So unless this is a bluff of an opening salvo I think this could go very badly for him. Even if the court finds in his favour the damage in the process I believe will be considerable. The thought of Fergie being called as a witness fills me with a combination of dread and second hand embarrassment. Not because I think she is malign or deceitful (in truth she was probably more genuine and definitely less malicious than the much sainted Princess Diana) but because she is so hapless, thoughtless and accident prone.

Prince Andrew wants his case to go to jury trial according to media reports. I am genuinely surprised by this. I thought he would opt for a discrete out of court settlement. This means that a lot of dirty laundry will be aired in public and a spectacle of a media event is guaranteed.
