Why does it matter whether or not you've heard of him?
- jacquesm 17y agoBecause chances are that if I have not heard of him (being something of a music fanatic) and spotify and his fan base do not intersect that there is a very logical explanation for him not being a big earner from spotify. He is confusing the value of spotify with the earnings from his songs. It would seem that if this was an artist that had lots of power in the region where spotify is most marketed (note that it has all kinds of regional restrictions on it today) that he would have a bigger chance of being right. As it stands I just chalk it up to Magnus X not being very popular with the spotify crowd, due to him being somewhat of a local phenomenon. Before you go and make a claim of 'fraud' (and that is what the article insinuates) you have to have some solid evidence. Have a read here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Uggla http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Uggla And see if you think he'll make big $ on spotify or not even if spotify would be lily white and pass 100% of their earnings on his 'share' to Magnus.
