> I think what pisses me of about Spotify is how they still want to pretend like they are the small startup, full of designers with their cute hand drawn graphics, being bullied by evil corporate American shills. It's all bullshit. They are just as corporate now as anyone else.

Fantano actually investigated this: the record labels rejected a higher artist % of streaming revenue from Spotify in favour of the labels owning more Spotify shares. Spotify is literally (to the extent of that ownership) the record labels.
