Purpose

This exploratory study explores usage habits in music streaming applications (MSA) and their influence on various dimensions, such as: changes in personal music management (PMM) and musical information retrieval; sense of ownership over songs being stored on MSA; and privacy concerns when using those applications. It also investigates the potential effect of demographic factors and personal musical preferences on the tested variables.

Design/methodology/approach

This is examined by using a mixed methodology that is consisted of two phases – qualitative and quantitative: The qualitative phase includes semistructured interviews with three MSA users, and the quantitative phase includes the distribution of closed-ended questionnaires among 192 users of MSA.

Findings

It seems that the musical information management methods have changed dramatically with the introduction of MSA. Also, the findings show that even though users are only moderately concerned about their privacy within MSA, they are willing to pay for premium services that will ensure privacy protection. Interestingly, personal musical preference was found to affect the belief in the potential of using MSA as part of a social activity and on the willingness to pay for premium services within them.

Originality/value

This paper represents an extension of the article by Weinberger and Bouhnik (2019). It appears to be the first academic research to investigate the issue of musical information retrieval and PMM among MSA. In addition, it is the first study that takes into account privacy-related issues among MSA users.

音乐流应用程序出现之后的各种信息方面

目的

这项探索性研究探讨了音乐流应用程序(MSA)的使用习惯及其对各个方面的影响,例如:个人音乐管理(PMM)和音乐信息检索的变化;对存储在MSA上的歌曲的所有权感;和使用这些应用程序时的隐私问题。它还调查了人口统计学因素和个人音乐偏好对测试变量的潜在影响。

设计/方法/方法

这是通过使用混合方法来进行检查的,该方法包括定性和定量两个阶段:定性阶段包括对三个MSA用户的半结构化访谈,定量阶段包括在192个MSA用户中分发封闭式问卷。

发现

随着MSA的推出,音乐信息管理方法似乎发生了巨大变化。此外,调查结果表明,即使用户仅对MSA中的隐私有中等程度的关注,他们还是愿意为确保隐私保护的高级服务付费。有趣的是,人们发现个人的音乐喜好会影响人们对使用MSA作为社交活动的一部分以及在其中购买高级服务的意愿的信念。

创意/价值

本文代表了Weinberger和Bouhnik(2019)的文章的扩展。这似乎是研究MSA中音乐信息检索和PMM问题的第一项学术研究。此外,这是第一项考虑MSA用户之间与隐私相关的问题的研究。
