Why are you bootlicking? Stop encouraging corporations to milk money from consumers because "it's not as bad as the others".
Especially when they've a) acknowledged that none of their money is actually going to the artists and b) they're in a piracy subreddit. People gotta stop shilling for music streaming services here, it's indefensible on every level.
Some of us old timers remember the bad old days when a CD with two songs you actually liked cost $17.99 (about $35-40 in today’s dollars). As bad as Spotify and others are it sure beats what we had before.
Yes, let's just pretend digital downloads haven't existed for longer than streaming services and solve this problem completely.
