    Grounded in more than a decade of field research, this book uses
    empirical examples, quantitative data, and qualitative interviews
    with young music consumers as well as music industry
    professionals to understand how the platforms behind music
    production, distribution and listening work in our digital
    society. Bringing together the perspectives from  science and
    technology studies, media studies, and the political economy of
    digital platforms, the book outlines the process of mutual
    construction between music digital platforms and the cultural value
    of music in today’s society, and reflects on the complicated
    relationship between the power of platforms and the agency of
    listeners also presenting an analysis of emerging technologies like
    artificial intelligence and blockchain for music circulation.
