Underglass.io: Bandcamp vs. the Giants

Another week, another article! This time we feature Bandcamp — a music store for independent artists (but it does so much more.)

Have a read at https://www.underglass.io/read/Bandcamp!

Some takeaways:
- Facing with industry changes, carve out your own path. While others focus on new technologies, automation and scale, the value of nostalgia, manual curation and local flavours can be left open.
- In a two-sided platform, build for authentic connection and feedback between both parties.
- Crowd patronage online is becoming a reliable form of income for many different types of creators
- Is providing the best possible user experience always a sustainable strategy?
