This is nothing but bullshit copyright cartel propaganda. Quit spreading it.

It’s is not a propaganda, it is just what copyright law is. Unless people waiver their rights specifically, purchased music is always licensed to you.
Meaning you cannot share the file to anyone else, because if that was the case anyone could buy it and share it with anyone else, making the concept of purchases void.
The only fair alternative would be to make the music a one time purchase of
Price per user * Number of Expected usersso that the artist gets their fair money and people can buy it by pooling money.That is stupid, but that’s how copyright is.
