Wildly disrespectful to any artist that ever lived. I’m all up for sharing alternatives that are good/better towards actual artists. Still evaluating my choices, but meanwhile this seems like the only and rather easy signal the streaming community can give as to spread the word if they agree (next to stopping your own subscription).

I left Spotify when they paid Rogan a shitload of money to peddle his crap while making efforts to reduce the share of streaming revenue that independent artists received. Guess we all have our tipping points but I’m surprised it has taken some this long while claiming to care about artists.
