>"So how much longer will we look away from this threat to the future of the internet? How many more consumers will be denied choice? There's been a lot of talk. Talk is helpful but we need action," Ek wrote." This from a man who built a company that has forced most of the artists on its platform to give away their work for pennies. This man has no problem with the "threat" to their livelihoods. And who can forget this quote from him: "You Can’t Record Music Every Three Or Four Years And Think That’s Going To Be Enough" [1] He also has no problem propping up the the oligopoly that is "record industry" where only three record companies control 70 percent of the market. And he has no problem with Spotify having exclusives on things like podcast that were once open to all. Daniel Ek is a hypocrite and an ass. He is best ignored.
