Spotify didn't have any fuckoff money in the start and the streamed stuff they got from the Piratebay. The authorities in Sweden didn't notice since they Spotify also tried at the same time to get proper contracts I guess and the music industry seemed to look through their fingers.

Youtube is more strange since they illegally hosted IP for a long while.
