As someone who's been reading Angry Metal Guy for more than seven years, I hated the decision to use the AI-generated images in this post, too. But don't let that get in the way of the main idea: buy albums on Bandcamp if you can afford it, use Apple Music or Tidal otherwise.

Yes, though I also liked the overall point of the post. Spotify recommendations are shit, and any playlist made by Spotify is full of garbage. I guess Ek knows this and, perhaps unconsciously, sees himself as evil, doing what's legal no matter how bad it is, with his weapon investments...

He defends this choice in the comments by saying they have no art budget. I wonder if he would be cool with me only listening to AI generated music because I have no music budget?

Probably?
