Good point. I'm curious to see if there's more of this from major bands. I love Spotify, but as a musician, it does make sense to capture all the sales you can at first, and then open up your album for free streaming later. Some fans will do whatever it takes to hear an album when it's released, and if you give them a free option upon release, you're losing those sales.
