Media that covers music business news, music marketing and music tech is putting more and more of its content behind paywalls. But Hypebot provides 100% free music business news and always will.

This is not a criticism of other platforms. They are doing what they need to do to survive in the face of the obstacles that will see more than a third of all US newspapers [go out of business](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline%5Fof%5Fnewspapers?ref=hypebot.com) before the end of 2025.

[Hypebot](https://www.hypebot.com/), launched 20 years ago to explore the changing music business, has continuously operated as a lean labor of love. With Alana Bonilla’s help, I mix daily original journalism alongside republished stories from expert sources.

We’ve been helped in that effort by the most genuinely [artist-centric company](https://artists.bandsintown.com/managed-actors?ref=hypebot.com) I know, [Bandsintown](https://www.bandsintown.com/?ref=hypebot.com), who acquired Hypebot in 2019.

#### **Spread the word that the [Music Business News](https://www.hypebot.com/news/) and other content on [Hypebot](https://www.hypebot.com/) is always 100% free**!
