Paying spotify to punish artists and pay industry bodies who in turn funnel money to rightoid hate groups is worse than starving artists.
Also, most artists get fuck all from Spotify or any of the streamers. Its a dead model and the only thing we’re guilty of is felony contempt of business model.
Fuck it, real fans steal the music and turn up to gigs.

Let me know how suing people for downloading music on Limewire works out for you
Also, most artists get fuck all from Spotify or any of the streamers
There’s more music released every minute that can be listened to in a lifetime, this is what happens when supply outstrips demand
Fuck it, real fans steal the music and turn up to gigs.
That’s cool and all but not every artist does gigs and most people don’t go to them, so there needs to be something for the other 99% of people, which conveniently, is called Spotify or Qobuz
Theres also a lot of aritists having their media streamed by these companies who get absolutely zero because they’re being robbed by Spotify and the industry at large
Just because Taylor Swift gets her cut doesn’t mean its just and fair.
Infact, I’d say thats just concentrating wealth in the hands of power again… So… uhh… I’mma keep “stealing” it and buying band merch instead.
And before Spotify, artists were able to make more money with physical media, that the customers owned for life. Spotify essentially made the situation worse for both the artist and the consumer.

Is it even stealing when the front door is open and brings FLACs.
I don’t know if it’s stealing but I feel better knowing when I listen to music artists get paid
As someone else pointed out:
That’s a lot of artists making music we enjoy who are able to eat at night
