Agreed and I have to wonder how any of these companies would respond if it was their users who agreed and knew the terms of their ecosystem and were now asking these three companies to change their rules.

Spotify also doesn't seem to have any problem agreeing to the terms dictated by the Big three record labels that control and the majority of recorded music that they have no choice but to agree to.
