Spotify’s plans to take money from subscribers but never pay a fucking dime to anyone else , ever.
The perfect corporation as no employee, no product, pays no taxes, and grows infinitely. Capitalism at work
Been off Spotify for over a year now after being on for about 15 years (2008-2023 I think). Trying to prioritize buying music from contemporary artists who are not big. Not too sure about the best places to buy from though, after Bandcamp was sold and laid off a bumch of people. Where does Qobuz or 7digital stack up in terms of paying the artists?

Move to Tidal if you value artists
Move to piracy and donate to the artists directly to better support the artist, if that is an option.
Tidal still take a cut from the artists revenue.
Some artists don’t have donation links, so Tidal is the best bet
Fuck Jack Dorsey too though, and its lacking a few bells ad whistles last time I checked.
If they weren’t so focused on Europe/the Americas, sure.
I am cancelling
When Spotify will unveil that the company will be run by AI and make the job of the CEO, CTO, etc, obsolete? When will the board of directors be replaced by AI? This is the news I want to hear.
New business idea: AI executives for your company as a service
I’ll discuss this with a few friends that are computer scientists and software engineers. AI job replacement will trickle-up.
I’m a computer scientist and software engineer. I’m only a few years out of college but judging by the trajectory of the current AI models, looking like my job won’t be replaced soon. I think the next year or two will solidify whether the gains in AI are tapering off or if it’s still possible for meaningful yearly improvements to AI.
AI generated
musicslopFTFY
There is already AI music which people create and upload.
yes but if Spotify uses its own GenAI music, they don’t have to pay anyone else when someone listens to it.
