"Spotify’s chief executive has defended the company’s move into AI-generated music, claiming it offers users and creators a better alternative to piracy and unregulated AI slop"
Piracy did more for music than Spoitify ever did
Even until recently it was something like only 13,000 musicians were making more than 50k+ a year, & its not all that much better now
They extracted wealth that could have been reinvested into music scenes and improving the industry and dumped it in the weapons industry
