But I also tune into WFMU if I want to hear a live human talking, making decisions on the fly, perhaps making mistakes, etc. The thrill of a live event. The issues for me are that Spotify doesn't pay its artists, and Spotify has an outsize influence in determining what counts as popular music.

I want us all to be the ones.
Not just myself
We need to show this society it's not about competition.

Yes, I listened to some of those episodes. It was a good way to popularize the collection. Some sessions on FMA are unique.

@markhurst GLOP is SLOP! just like the soc's have to now label AI images (if we trust them too) otherwise people are going to believe EVERYTHING they see. I hope this does not conflict w my love for techno?;)

Sam: Theoretically the free market should solve this. If enough musicians get paid 0 for millions of views, they will eventually leave and the platform will make less money. People just have to leave and go somewhere that treats them better!
