Epic Games eliminates staff, Bandcamp

Epic Games has been talked about through the years on this blog and podcast series. According to Epic Games is eliminating 16% of its workforce and selling Bandcamp from CNBC, this is going to be very interesting.

Here’s the boost that came across my desk with the link to the article.

Celeste, AKA DJ Celrock!: Boosting Joe Ortiz (joeo10): If you’re using #Bandcamp, I would strongly advise getting two external hard drives depending on your size and download your purchased #music ASAP since the new owners are a marketing B2B company and I know where this is eventually going. https://www.cnbc.com/2023/09/28/epic-games-is-eliminating-16percent-of-its-workforce-and-selling-bandcamp.html

I would not be surprised if Songtradr is going to push the #enshittification button on it. https://www.songtradr.com/blog/posts/songtradr-bandcamp-acquisition/

Songtradr acquires Bandcamp is the press release.

According to the press release, they intend to keep Bandcamp from Within the music industry. I guess we’ll see what happens with that.

Hopefully, Epic can figure themselves out now that they don’t have to worry about Bandcamp.
