This your Stream to Save/ Like ratio meaning if you have a lot of streams that is great but it means nothing if people are not saving your record to their own playlists. This is something to focus heavy on in 2020 as you are gonna need these numbers to have to 100:3 or better in order to get the best results.

The significance of learning music at a young age is depicted through the resultant developments your child undergoes. Listening to good music creates a particular inclination towards the performing arts discipline, and learning any musical instrument offers a myriad of opportunities. The piano for instance is a remarkable example of both, how complicated and mesmerizing music is. Learning the piano since a younger age can lead to a holistic development of your child’s physical as well as mental abilities. Leveraging this advantage of learning music can only be made achievable by a piano teacher or a music teacher for that fact.
