Morning Italian and Deadc. Thanks for the input.
I do not think giving tokens to only some of the shareholders constitutes a buy out.
If indeed there is one, we can expect more news via our brokers.

Hi Italian
Judging by HL's reply to you and the absence of any other confirmation it could be our Mr Backhouse has got the wrong end of the stick.
It could be that, given NAPS are keen to embrace crypto, NFTs and meta, that they might be using Algo as a platform. But this would just be an an agreement, rather than any sort of merger or buy out.
That said, if Algo were to offer a billion (not a lot these days)...........!
Meanwhile we just wait for news as and when. As PI's, we are a pain to them, but they will have to tell us things eventually.

Indeed it is. And in the December 2 RNS they said they wanted to keep all the staff together (or words to that effect) .

Working on the app means continuous ongoing development, as it would with any other tech. Development is not finite.

They're not going to turn round and say ' Goody, the app's launched, There's no more work for us to do'. And they would not be doing it if there wasn't an endgame.

Yeah I usually listen to QT, Offler.
There are always going to be opinions. It's just that some opinions are better than others.
But then I suppose we all think that way.

Neil Young said ~"Rogan or me" Spot chose Rogan. The reason? They are making money from advertising on the back of his podcasts.
And at the risk of repeating what has been said before, they have never made money from streaming.
As I said a few days ago, they are becoming less music, and more podcast. The attitude towards artists is looking a bit cavalier.

It beats me why so many would take any notice of Rogan anyway.
He now says it's not his opinions, he's just reflecting other peoples'. What's the point of that? If you want an accurate view of Covid, just ask the medical professionals.

18 years ago, SPOT ate Napster's lunch.
Now they may have painted themselves into a corner, and the timing couldn't have been better from NAPS' point of view.
Admittedly a different crew now run NAPS but could it be a case of 'Revenge is a dish best served cold?'

IMO there may be more to this than meets the eye.
It's no secret that artists generally have not been happy with streaming deals. And the podcaster is being used to 'front' their actions.
As I say, just IMO.

Oh, I can't promise that. LOL.

Payment system is strange, where the A-listers are supporting most others, but no-one ends up very content.
The treatment of artists is important, including for the benefit of streaming itself. AM certainly mentioned it a few months back when talking about the new app.

Only another 11 months and we can have a Christmas truce again. Maybe a game of footie as well, like they did (I think they stuck bayonets in the ground for goalposts. LOL).

Are they becoming less music and more podcast?
Neil Young defecting doesn't look good, as a result. Maybe he could take a few more with him.
I don't think they are well-liked by artists generally. Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift included.
It's just that Spot have had it all to themselves more or less. Time to shake the market up, maybe !

That's chat rooms for you.
Anyway who are you, Daniel Sallus the Fifteenth ?

Offler
Instead of being so flippant, why don't you try doing some caring yourself?
You could start by changing your own nappies.

And are you ever going to do any research? Because you just haven't got a clue. Enough people have told you.
In case you hadn't noticed, what they are doing is an exit strategy.
More research for you, if you don't know what that is.

You been talking to Patty hearst again, Offler?
Or have you been on the ouija board?

Patty Hearst indeed. Even Londondan is ignoring you now.

Hi Italian
On the RNS of 2 Dec it indicated that NM Inc wanted to keep the staff together as much as possible.
So if there is a head of R & D then AM is probably it.

But he is not running the company - or at least he won't be. D Sallus as sole director IS NM Inc.
Not sure how he is going to be remunerated. Maybe a mix of salary, equity, options. Whatever, it is unlikely to be trivial.

It's a bit like Bitcoin, in that I can't get my head around that either.

My thoughts on NFTs are, the more state-of-the-art content the better. It will giver them an advantage.
Maybe that is what they have been trying to do. Hence the overrun timewise.

Hi Italian
As N & G have advised NAPS, it looks like they have done their bit.
Still not sure when it took place, probably some while earlier.
It's no excuse, but NAPS were no doubt preoccupied with Dec 2 RNS happenings.

N & G haven't updated their website. According to that they still hold 12.3 per cent (364 million). So well out of date.

All that doesn't make any clearer really, does it?

That was a more likely explanation than your own perceptive?? post just before it, Londondan.
Which was mindbogglingly brainless even by your own standards.

ii didn't send me any email pointing it out, so it obviously wasn't worth the bother.
And don't tell lies about me providing false info. The only one who does that is you - time and again

Now look what you've done Offler. You've got Djp57 confused. As well as yourself - but that's usual.

Look, nobody is ever going to do this anyway, so I don't know why you started the argument.
END OF.

Step one as you say, is find a buyer.
So what are you going to do? Put the shares on Ebay?

You're totally in the dark before you've even started.

Fine in theory.
In practice, somewhere between difficult and impossible.
