    Spotify will now give your music an algorithmic boost in exchange for a lowered “promotional recording royalty rate.”

    FUCK SPOTIFY. FUCK EM.

    All these rich fat cats raking in their multi-million dollar pay checks, while they roll out ways to pay less and less to artists. I wish Apple Music had more listeners, at least they are a fraction fairer.

    • MY STANCE WILL DESTROY THEM, I'M SURE!hans_glib
    • even better: "...the press release adds that accepting these new terms "won’t guarantee placement to labels or artists."prophetone
    • So, if that's true, and if you accept their terms, they can pay you less without having to provide anything at all in exchangeprophetone
    • Or to be fair even if a nominal alg boost, they fully benefit w/ all the of reward, where an artist might only see a minor difference in overall plays, if anyprophetone
