Spotify fucks over most artists anyway, so who cares?
- chrneu 10mo agoyeah it's wild to me how folks will defend the current status quo when it's clearly broken. people defend convenience way too much. spotify isn't good for us and spotify-like-streaming is destroying the music industry.
- raw_anon_1111 10mo agoSpotify pays the rightsholders. What are they supposed to do about the shitty contracts that the artists signs with the labels?
- hermanzegerman 10mo agoThey don't pay any artist who has less than 1000/Streams per Song per Year. They also deliberately choose a model which favours big artists, where they split the compensation just by the plays instead of User Centric Payments. Either way I don't feel bad about the Labels or Spotify. If I want to support an artist I buy their music, go to a concert or buy merch. I've had a Spotify Subscription, but that got cancelled as I didn't agree to the recent Price Hike, as I wasn't interested in paying for AudioBooks I don't care about. Now I'm rolling with YouTubeMusic and I am looking for a less shitty alternative
- Aldipower 10mo agoI am providing my own music on Spotify via a distributor I a pay 50 Euros once. What do I get from Spotify? Basically nothing! It is not the rightholders as I am the rightholder! Spotify is a scam for artist.
