What? Piracy isn’t the evil that it used to be 15-20 years ago where people would rip cds and tapes. Nowadays everyones music is hosted and streamed legally on youtube/spotify/play music/any generic music service. The days of people paying $20 for an album cd just to listen to the one hit they like are long gone. If artists trust their popularity then they can pull their music from streaming services, indirectly forcing fans to purchase their albums (like taylor swift did a while ago). But even this isnt an option for smaller artists, who would just disappear into obscurity because of how over saturated the industry is.
