This is theft. No matter how you look at it. This makes everything every artist has ever made free. If a library of books was stolen like this there would be lawsuits. I expect Spotify will sue over this, not that I support them or this activity. But I don't know what good will come out of lawsuits by a company only interested in self-preservation. What we need is an instant, global, frictionless way for fans to support art directly. Oh wait.... we have that! #nostr #bitcoin #lightning #lightningislove @Wavlake @Fountain @truefans #grownostr ⚡️ We are almost there 🤞🏻 I desperately hope fans will support artists directly in the future. 🧡💜

> This is theft. No matter how you look at it. Nothing was stolen, Spotify still has all their copies and they’re in the same state as prior. So no, it’s not theft, no matter if you emotionally want to label it that because you don’t like it, but that’s simply not what happened here.
