Fuck Spotify. If you don't want to be a 40 year old and buy albums, Deezer and Tidal pay much larger royalties than Spotify.

As a 40 year old I have no idea what you're on about lol

Broadly speaking, people aged 40+ still sometimes buy albums, but most young people mostly just stream.

I actually hate to say it, but I switched to Apple Music the moment Spotify paid joe rogan 200 million dollars.

Obviously Spotify has money to pay artists, but they're choosing to screw them. They've really high-balled a nobody
