Big picture question for the field:
In 2022, SPOT will do north of $12 billion revenue and 0% EBIT margins, SIRI will do $9 billion revenue and 23% EBIT margins, and IHRT will do over $4... login to read the rest
very efficient for Spot to invest $100mm in Rogan-assuming that is the figure, add lets say 5mm subs at $8/month=$480mm in subscription revenue valued at 5x by the market=$2.4B in market value creation, to say... login to read the rest
I was already here and it was so hard to hold onto as it meandered around. Great service - family loves it -and had been bad stock. Then it exploded. I am still there but... login to read the rest
Nailed this part of the thesis "I think 2020 may be the year when Spot’s podcasting ambitions, and the potential benefits to its economics, start to become recognized by the market."
good point. not automatically awesome. Based on our prior back and forth on the Netflix thread back in September in which content cost inflation was a core part of your bear case, I think its... login to read the rest
FWIW for those who are embracing SPOT because of podcasting and the more than $2.5B move today that held from the announcement, it might be worth noting that ETM is a top podcaster too...

Thank you O6I,
You can find my contact details (email) in the Q&A of 2016 Ash Grove Cement idea, I posted them when I was less familiar with the dynamics of the platform.

So the way I see SPOT's real bull case is how big artist marketing revenue can get, because this is high margin top line that flows largely intact down to the bottom line.

Thank you for the comments. Yes, $19B was essentially direct selling and performance rights. It does not include live music or the podcast vertical. Concerts would be around $34B now and estimated $50B or so... login to read the rest
Chipping in here.
I'm assuming that the music industry revenue figure you're using is from direct "selling" of music (ie, streaming, CDs, iTunes, etc). SPOT has a 2-step process here. Step 1 is to make music... login to read the rest
Win, thank you for your answer. But why do you think it is not relevant TAM vs. current valuation? I think this is paramount for any investment. Because if you do not think so, what... login to read the rest
Hi coyote- I am not sure that is so relevant. For Spot, I think the long-term investment will turn on three key variables: 1) size and sustainability of the user base; 2) ability to differentiate... login to read the rest
Winbrun,
thank you for the idea. How do you get comfortable with the fact that Spotify's current valuation is essentally the same that the revenues for the whole music industry?
All the best.
