What you are missing is that they are majority owned by the same record companies they are paying out 70% to. They even specifically structured the deals between Spotify and labels so that they pay labels in a way that allows labels not to credit artists for nearly 50% of all streams meaning the label gets to keep it.

Chokepoint capitalism by Cory Doctorow is a great book that goes into detail about how it works

What have they ever innovated?

Literally listen to podcasts anywhere other than Apple or Spotify. Podcasting has been a historically open eco system that both companies are actively working to kill

If you’re interested in the complex ecology of forests the book “The Hidden Life of Trees” is a really good book that talks about all of the symbiotic relationships of forests and how they work together to make a forest strong. Can’t recommend it enough

Reminder that they paid Joe Rogan a reported $100-$200 million dollars to spew hate and they pay artists less than most other streaming sites.

They’ve also blobbed onto podcasts like an aggressive cancer. This is purely causing human suffering in favor of pumping up their stock price. Fuck Spotify and fuck you if you are still using it

Reminder they paid Joe Rogan a reported 100-200 million dollars to spew his bullshit and they don’t pay artists shit.

Spotify is also cancer to podcasting

Here is an actual link because the Denver gazette is an ad ridden dumpster fire that doesn’t deserve the space it takes up on the internet.
