    Episode #306: Displacement and the Long Tail
    2025/04/23
    Wired editor Chris Anderson came up with the idea of "the long tail" in 2004, suggesting that older books, music, and other creative works would continue to sell in small amounts, making enough money over time for these creators to survive. He was wrong. Very wrong. Help support The Next Track by making regular donations via Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/thenexttrack).
