Well, as long as I’ve got my music, it’ll be a good deal to me. I mean, respectfully, I really don’t care about their profitability if : 1) I get to pay reasonable price 2) artists are paid a reasonable prices 3) VCs are ok to throw money at it for any reason. On the current state of affairs, everyone is happy (or at least happier than Spotify). Is it future proof ? Probably not, but it’s a little more present proof than Spotify. If someday this equation changes or the company collapses, well, I’ll just go elsewhere. And if the industry is not capable in itself to handle the use case of paying a monthly fee to be able to listen to music while remunerating artists, given that humanity in general never paid as much money just for music in the whole human history, it would just mean that they are incredibly stupid and that they deserve the piracy.
