Awesome! I just downloaded it from soundcloud.

Paul,

Have you lost your mind?  First you write a blog warning fans not to put the Spotify App on their band sites.

Now, you are posting a playlist that requires you to join Spotify to hear the playlist.

I'm confused.........

REVENUE

2008: $0.6 mil

2009:  $18 mil

2010: $99 mil

2011:  $236 mil

2012:  $889 mil (projected)

And Spotify pays around 65-70% of its revenue as royalties.

I guess Spotify is bad because it doesn't pay enough royalties (should be 80% royalties or higher) 

I guess Spotify is bad because it has never made a profit.

Would love to see that impressive pay out distribution per song to major label acts vs independents.

Spotibot PR machine spin op heath warnings should be added to your posts.

You are busted!

Same old Spotify; conveniently leaving out the pertinent details on their financial disclosures.

The real question is the equity deals with the content owners, the major labels.  Okay got that, same answer, its' up to the labels to decide how those monies are distributed.....

80% of nothing is nothing.......

Whoa

No David lowery music was used to make this playlist.  It would have been a great use of his song, "I Hate My Generation".  Hmmm...

But wouldn't it have to be, "I Hate Your Generation" instead?

Yep.

Nice one, Paul. I chuckled.

dark. humor.
