Streaming prices spreadsheet, 2019

"Streaming prices spreadsheet, 2019" is part of the STREAM Project. This project has looked at the 1) the design, technology and repertoire, 2) the usage and practice, and 3) the business models and value networks of streaming media services. This research design enables a cross-disciplinary advancement of theories and methods to capture the complex actor-networks of streaming. Four sections of the culture industries was examined. Music, television, film and book publishing are all currently seeing developments towards streaming as a dominant or emergent distribution and business model, both in Norway and internationally. While some studies have analyzed streaming in isolated sectors, none have so far examined streaming across the culture industries, taking heed of variances with the streaming media services in question. By producing empirical studies and theoretical concepts of new media technological practices, STREAM aimed at genuinely new contributions to the media and communications studies of culture and technology.

"Streaming prices spreadsheet, 2019" incudes a dataset of prices for streaming services for music, television, film and audio books, spanning seven different services, and includes nine countries from 2008-2019.
