> Spotify pays artists very little and most money gets sent to record labels. Even labels see almost nothing. [5]

How is that shady? They have deals with the appropriate companies.

Exactly. That's not shady, that's just how their business works and labels are not blind from that fact.
It's unethical to exploit artists for the profit of streaming companies and record labels while simultaneously hailing yourself as a godsend for said artists.
