    A Drip is a pre-release playlist that acts like a virtual listening party, limited to 20 to 1000 plays. It provides insights on audience interaction and helps plan release strategies. By collecting email addresses from participants and those who miss out, it converts social media followers to email subscribers. Drips create an exclusive experience for listeners and help choose singles for different regions, like one for the US and another for the UK, while identifying active fan clusters.
