Comment on "Sponsored recommendations": I pay for Spotify Premium, and yet somehow I'm still the product?
BURN@lemmy.world 10 months agoHow I have to torrent cause my isp will cancel service over it.
If you’re pirating you’re not paying the artist at all. Spotify is better than pirating.

I don’t pirate. I buy albums.

You’re advocating for piracy explicitly

I’m advocating using Bandcamp where the artist actually gets paid. Spotify is piracy, and I’m discouraging that.
Go to bandcamp and buy the actual album.

Yeah, that’s not happening. I can’t afford to pay thousands of dollars a month for music. I’m going to continue using Spotify because at the end of the day it’s not my responsibility to determine how much the artists get paid. There’s a bunch of problems I care about, this isn’t one of them.
