Thanks for sharing the vid; that was insanely fascinating, even if a bit depressing.

What's even more depressing is that there isn't a proper alternative. Many music streaming services have their own flaws. A friend of mine recommended Deezer, as it has really high quality streams but that one is owned by a Russian oligarch.

Artists are paid the most with Apple music but Apple is a shit company as well. Streaming is all fucked, same with movies / shows.

If you want to support the artists, buy their music on Bandcamp. Musicians are having it hard, they need our support. They deserve our money. It's the pirate code: pirate from the mega corps and billionaires, support the little guys.
