End Spotify

mardi 10 avril 2018 à 02:00

Spotify is bad for musicians' income, and bad for listeners' freedom. Let's put an end to it!

To listen to music and not be a jerk, you need to be in a position to share copies with your friends. Normally this means listening to your own nonoppressive local copy. A nonoppressive copy is one that has no DRM or anything else that would interfere with sharing.

Any system of listening to music that discourages people from having nonoppressive local copies is encouraging people to be jerks. Let's legislate against such systems.

Out, out, damned spotify!
