There's a lot that goes on every month. Here are some quick highlights from some of the stories we covered this month:

Royal announced a new public resource - their Song Valuation Calculator. It seems marketed more towards artists, but it tries to model a valuation based on Spotify streams and other data.
Doorvest and Arrived partnered up to list a single family home for fractional investment on Arrived's platform.
Fundrise's Innovation Fund made its second investment. It's about $1M into a data infrastructure company called Immuta. They also shared they'll be opening up the Innovation Fund for investment again soon.

It's a long, thorough guide that discusses a lot of different concepts in detail and with some data and examples. If you're still learning about music royalties, we really think this guide will provide a ton of useful information and help make you a better, more prepared investor. Find the link just below.

For the time being, we're going to try to standardize on the weekly news roundups. We'll still have additional stand-alone stories on occasion when we think there's something newsworthy enough - like how we did for when Here missed their Q4 payments.
The main reason behind that is simply a lot of these developments and announcements are too small for a dedicated story. That having been said, we're really open to feedback and providing the most useful content we can.
As mentioned above, the main time investment for content went into the article on music royalty valuations. We think it's an under-appreciated and little-understood asset class that can be a great generator of passive income. That's why it's one of the areas we've focused on more heavily from the beginning of the site.
Lastly, we've been running some experiments with updating some of the main pages of the website. Honestly, the data there has been somewhat unclear, so it likely requires further thought as to what's the best approach.
