This is why I pirate my music
People here is losing their mind. Paying more to our artist is cool, the problem is that without spotify we don't have a lot of ways to popularize our artist (at least that is what people is saying on social media).
I'm not sure what to think about all this, because I'm sure a lot of new artist will suffer a lot.
