All you can eat?

No restaurant can legitimately sustain an all-you-can-eat buffet for £11.99 per person per month.

This business model can only work by shifting the cost of serving unlimited food to their workers and suppliers. In other words, the restaurant can only profit when everyone else loses, including its customers, who likely receive substandard meals and an awful experience to make the numbers work.

Does that sound familiar? Because that’s what’s happening with streaming music. Artists and labels earn much less than they should, and fans must endure a poor and worsening experience. Meanwhile, the companies that sell music, without which they could not survive, profit massively.

Sawtooth exists to right this wrong for indie artists, labels, and fans alike. We’ll earn our fair share, too, but nothing more than that.
