I find it so disingenuous when people claim "oh well there's only so many notes". Sure, the basic building blocks are the same, but that's like saying every computer chip is the same because they're all made of transistors. It's not about the building blocks, there's an infinite number of ways that you can put them together, and not just by random chance either. Dave Grohl will happily tell you he stole his drum beats from Disco, you would have to be an idiot to claim that Nirvana produced disco music. The complaints about copyright law are to me atleast, not seeing the forest for the trees. It's much more concerning the conflicts of interest between the music labels and spotify - setting up a deal that essentially siphons off their artists's profits to themselves, than copyright law as it is today. If the market were structured such that the labels had a fiduciary responsibility to their signed artists this market would look very different.
