Epic Games Purchases Bandcamp
Longtime Slashdot reader tlhIngan writes: As reported in many outlets, Epic Games has acquired indie music store Bandcamp to build out a "creator marketplace." Bandcamp will continue to be run as it is. "The products and services you depend on aren't going anywhere," wrote Bandcamp co-founder and CEO Ethan Diamond in a statement. "We'll continue to build Bandcamp around our artists-first revenue model (where artists net an average of 82% of every sale), you'll still have the same control over how you offer your music, Bandcamp Fridays will continue as planned, and the Daily will keep highlighting the diverse, amazing music on the site." Diamond says the company will be working with Epic in the background to expand internationally and "push development forward" across its services, "from basics like our album pages, mobile apps, merch tools, payment system, and search and discovery features, to newer initiatives like our vinyl pressing and live streaming services." Bandcamp adds to the long list of companies under the Epic Games umbrella, notes Eurogamer. "Since 2018, Epic Games has, alongside ArtStation and Sketchfab, acquired the likes of Cloudgine, Quixel, SuperAwesome, Hyprsense, RAD Games Tools, Tonic Games Group -- which includes Fall Guys developer Mediatonic and Fortitude Games -- plus Rocket League studio Psyonix, and Rock Band developer Harmonix."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
