Or are they simply not featuring new classical recordings? Or will classical labels decide to stream elsewhere? I agree with removing white noise, but not at the expense of quality music. The simple fact is that classical musicians will never get the amount of streams pop artists do.&nbsp;</P><P><STRONG>Plan</STRONG></P><P>Free/Premium</P><P><STRONG>Country</STRONG></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><STRONG>Device</STRONG></P><P>(iPhone 8, Samsung Galaxy 9, Macbook Pro late 2016)</P><P><STRONG>Operating System</STRONG></P><P>(iOS 10, Android&nbsp;Oreo, Windows 10,etc.)</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><STRONG>Demonetization</STRONG><STRONG>&nbsp;of classical music?</STRONG></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Sun, 12 Jan 2025 05:06:29 GMT scottsharlyn 2025-01-12T05:06:29Z Classical Music 2025 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Content-Questions/Classical-Music-2025/m-p/6646177#M63936 <P>When the new demonetization takes effect, what happens to classical recordings?
