The Online World of Symphony.live; How Spotify’s Wrapped Campaign for 2022 Came Together; Dolby Atmos is Reinvigorating Dire Straits' Classic Catalogue

View online

+ We’ve published on Revue since our debut back in 2016. Revue is down to its last days. This means Platform & Stream will have a new home in early January. It’s looking like Substack. The ‘look’ of the newsletter might change a little, but should be business as usual. We’ll also keep with the Monday-Friday schedule, but that could change.

+ Next week’s schedule is up in the air, so if you only see one or two issues, don’t worry. We’ll be back up to speed once 2023 rolls in.

+ A big ‘Thank You’ to all the readers of the daily digest, old and new, for supporting the newsletter all these years. It’s been a sensational experience. Onward and upward.

+ Wishing everyone a terrific holiday weekend and a happy and healthy new year.
