I think Spotify's saving grace is that it's not owned by a big tech company. I think the music industry would prefer to negotiate with Spotify than with YouTube.

Isn't it a big tech company itself?

Well at least they want to be one. It's not like they want to be the good guys there. This is what disappoints me a little bit

At least it's focused on Music industry. At least I'm comfortable as a patron that some egoist exec won't just shut it down out of nowhere.
