It's been a huge benefit to consumers though. I can listen to more music than I can think of, and the price of it is almost nothing.

Stealing music is also GREAT from the consumer perspective, and the artist makes approximately as much money as they do from a Spotify stream.

Yes, but with the rise of streaming, artists have changed where they get their revenue from. Gig tickets feel far more expensive now, but this way people are able to legally listen to and discover SO much more music.
