You honestly think an artist/label getting $0.003 per play is 'so much'?

Yes. And this sense of entitlement is getting on my nerves.

The cost of music distribution has gone from infinite to ZERO in just about 130 years. This is a great achievement for us as a species and we should adapt accordingly instead of bemourning expired business models.

The music industry was constructed around the bottleneck of physical media distribution. This bottleneck does not exist anymore.
