**"The Ethics of Streaming"**Streaming manipulation, artificially boosting stream counts in order to improve chart positioning, increase market share, increase royalty payments, or for other non-legitimate purposes, is real. The problem is far-reaching, affecting more than just the Independent community. What can the music and/or tech industries, do to stop this abuse?Panelists Include:

**Louis Posen** – Hopeless Records, Moderator 

**Markus Tobiassen** – Norwegian Newspaper Dagens Næringsliv 

**Angel Gambino** – Napster

**Me** – Hypebot, Bandsintown, Skyline Artists Agency

The panel will be held on Tuesday, June 18th @ 12:30PM. More info and buy your tickets [here](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/a2im-indie-week-2019-presented-by-soundexchange-tickets-53151989030?ref=hypebot.com)."
