What improvement in service does the hike reflect?
This guy asking the real questions. They’re already fucking over their artists, please give me a reason to start pirating music again.
Please.
They have an estimated 212 million premium users. That’s an additional 2.5 Billion dollars they’re looking at per year.
How else will they grow insatiably like the rest of these capitalist pigs???? They have to predict everything, do everything, be in everything, become your fucking God
Shit ain’t cheap
