Hey, if we have to pay a content-agnostic version of spotify $0.000006 cents per token to a vague group of original authors, I’m all for it!

But how are we going to compensate Kurt Cobain, the Beatles, Beethoven, and random sounds I heard from my backyard for my supposedly original works on my soundcloud?
