@evan @molly0xfff As with most monopolists, they tend to suck for everyone on both sides of the equation (artists and consumers) but they may still be a least-bad option. 🤷🏽
(Note that they did not arise for books, websites, or (AFAIK) movies, so to what extent they arise organically as a result of technological change is questionable. But obviously if we’re going to see new ones in our lifetimes, now is probably the time.)
