>Grainge sports an impressive pair of aural appendages that move up and down the sides of his head when he’s talking.

The part where UMG's CEO is complaining about how "legitimate artists" deserve more revenue from streams was interesting. He's not actually complaining about AI here but about amateur artists getting as much money from streams as "legitimate artists". "Legitimate" meaning fame and a direct tie to UMG, as if those are the measures of a musician's worth.

    "they treat Scotland as a mere appendage of England"

and they never shut up about it.

I guess this is a comment about context.
