They make far more when you buy a CD
Who the hell still listens to CD’s? Lets take a look at how much money they were making when CD’s were all the rage:
Oh right, it was declining massively because people were pirating MP3’s just like Lemmy users earlier suggested.
Vinyl record sales are outdoing CD’s:
or go to a concert’
Just fyi there’s nothing clamping you to Spotify, I’ve had Spotify since June 2012 and been to plenty of concerts since then
large rightsholders who already have wealth taken a massively disproportionate amount of that
Then listen to smaller artists? The more you listen to them the bigger their share the more money they make…
last reply …
Well I mean I pay for Spotify because I listen to a shitload of music, I would probably be #1 in all of Lemmy easily, podcasts and audiobooks are just nice things to have for me :)
🤔 something is wrong with your text, are you from Russia?
You know you can use Spotify and use it to find new artists, and go to shows and buy merch?
Did you know you can even buy merch within Spotify?
You can also see when they’re on tour:
I support artists more than the pennies spotify pays them
Wrong
Spotify has reported a record payout of $10 billion (A$15.4 billion) in royalties to the music industry for 2024, marking the largest annual payment from a single retailer in history.
And it’s not pennies, you pay ~$15 a month, of which 70% goes to labels, 30% goes to Spotify, that’s $10 a month that goes to all labels and artists.
Artists I like I’ll buy their merch, go to their shows, etc
Oh now you mention merch and shows, good one.
If you want to leach music for free by pirating music and spitting in the face of artists do it, just don’t think you have any moral high ground.
Massive Attack led the charge by directly criticising Daneil before requesting removal of their music.
Been a month still here?
The group joins King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard, Xiu Xiu, Deerhoof and Godspeed You! Black Emperor in abandoning the platform entirely.
I have no idea who these bands are
Their CEO supports a company that bombs kids in Gaza. Should I say more?
No because you have no ability to do basic research but good job ONCE AGAIN on not being able to do anything without spreading gaza propaganda.
Helsing said in a statement: “Currently we see misinformation spreading that Helsing’s technology is deployed in war zones other than Ukraine. This is not correct. Our technology is deployed to European countries for deterrence and for defence against the Russian aggression in Ukraine only.”

Out of all the music streaming services, spotify pays artists the least
Actually they pay the most

Oh! They recently added audiobooks to the main app, every month I get 15 hours to listen to audiobooks included free with the subscription! that’s pretty cool :)
Unlimited music, podcasts, free audiobooks, works natively on linux (something most others don’t), only $15 AUD a month (which is about 1 subway meal so not a lot), European company, gives billions to artists every year… etcetc
Why wouldn’t I use Spotify?
No support for artists?
ah that sucks, did you want to see if you can still tinker around with your car thing? it looks like some people have got it working again:

these new “hacks” suck, bring back worms that would shut your pc down just after you connected to the net, that was hacking! 👨🦳
2·10 days agoIt’s not, you are imagining something that isn’t there, AI simply isn’t good enough to make something this realistic without there being super fuggin obvious signs
Even using Sora 2 which came out a week ago still has uncanny valley
