I dislike how Spotify is seen as evil when they charge a low price people can actually afford, and pay almost all of it in artist royalties. They make music accessible and affordable, and actually provide a path for new artists to get music out there without having to sign awful recording industry contracts- which are the real reason most musicians don’t actually get much of the money fans spend. It can help you discover a new artist you have never heard of, and they actually get paid each time you listen to them- pretty amazing really.
