Netgigs Keeping Gigs Going
NETGIGS CONNECTS ARTISTS TO THEIR FANS
Netgigs is an Australian pay-per-view live streaming platform that allows artists to perform directly to their fans around the world, anytime anywhere. For music lovers, Netgigs allows you to watch your favourite artists live and on-demand, purchase merch, music, concert tickets and more. Simple.
A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR ARTISTS
Since the advent of file sharing, the music industry has had a love/hate relationship with the digital world. On one hand the internet offers artists an unlimited platform to sell, promote and distribute their work. On the other hand, changes in the way people buy and consume music leaves most artists with no way of making a fair income.
Live music is one of the last true avenues for artists to survive. That was until a pandemic forced every live music venue on the planet to close indefinitely! But artists around the world found the solution to lockdown, and in doing so showed the way forward for the industry. Livestreaming is the future of music.
Netgigs is a game-changer. Artists can stream content using professional production equipment, or directly from their smartphone using the Netgigs app. The technology is easy to use, provides artists with a range of features, and delivers the audience high quality video and audio. Best of all, artists are appropriately compensated for their work.
A NEW INCOME STREAM FOR ALL ARTISTS
Netgigs helps artists monetise their live streaming and turn it into a powerful marketing tool.
· PAY-PER-VIEW – Each live stream makes money for the artist directly from their fans (60-80% depending on region)
· ROYALTY COLLECTION – Netgigs has agreements with international collecting agencies, ensuring artists always receive due royalties (up to 20% depending on region).
GREAT CONTENT + GREAT QUALITY = GREAT RESULTS
This equation is perfectly simple. Fans want to see great content, streamed at high quality. The content is up to the artists... they can get as creative and adventurous as they please. The streaming quality is where Netgigs comes in.
HIGH-QUALITY, LOW-LATENCY STREAMING
Netgigs uses HTTP Live Streaming protocol (HLS) coupled with the H.265 codec – delivering twice the audio/video quality of H.264.

Netgigs originated in Adelaide with companies now in Australia, USA and Ireland and PRO royalty licenses in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, UK, Ireland and Germany.
"The music industry has the ability to be a leader in livestreaming, rather than wait for the technology to hit and be scared of it like we initially were with Spotify. The models are continually changing, and we as a music industry have to be proactive in making sure we are at the head of the change – and dictating what that change can be, rather than allow technology to dictate it for us." David Grice, CEO, Netgigs
