You made the claim, so the burden of proof is on you, nevertheless: https://www.statista.com/chart/amp/15764/prevalence-of-music-piracy/ https://www.statista.com/chart/amp/15764/prevalence-of-music... One thing I did find is that, for some reason, Covid saw a drop in music piracy. That has nothing to do with the claim that “since Spotify released (2011), music piracy is non existent”, though. I didn’t bother to read on idea of why that occurred.

Access to pirated music in the EU fell by 81% between 2017 and 2020. Eighty one per cent! Meanwhile, with a slightly different metric: “In 2020, the average internet user in the EU accessed pirated music 0.6 times per month, compared to 2.3 in 2017.” https://musically.com/2021/12/13/online-music-piracy-declining/ https://musically.com/2021/12/13/online-music-piracy-declini... And Spotify might have released in 2011 but it went mainstream around late 2010s.
