You’re shitting on Spotify and use that to defend that you’re stealing from artists?

Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per play to artists. Who’s really the one stealing?

So, because Spotify doesn’t pay much to artists, it’s okay that you pay nothing?

Spotify is stealing from artists too. I’m just not lining that corporations pockets. I still buy albums from band camp and go to shows and buy merch — all much more direct impactful ways of supporting the artists.
