Sharp point. If the only relationship we had with Spotify was the one dictated by their public API TOS, then yes, we wouldn't be in accord.

However, thankfully we have agreements and relationships in place with all the music services that enable us to do what we do. This is because we serve as a marketing channel for the music services, helping them acquire new subscribers in ways they can't do easily themselves.

EDIT: Applies to all of our partnered music services.
