So every product on the market is gate keeping?

Autocorrect sorry, supposed to be gate keeping.
Spotify isn’t gate keeping access to the lyrics - you’re free to look them up on musixmatch or any of the other lyric sites and services. They’ve simply added them to their subscription services. You don’t know what gate keeping means.
You also still haven’t answer how anyone “stole” anything? Who stole what and from who?
No one is gathering access to lyrics.
Who “stole“ something here, and from who?
Stolen? Who stole the lyrics?
It’s not up to Spotify to pay the wages of the company that provides a paid service to them.
It seems they were right going by how upset people are in here. Many of these people that are carrying on like spoiled children will no doubt subscribe to premium now.
That’s honestly the only thing making me consider voting yes. I don’t want to be partly responsible for nothing being done even if I don’t think voting yes will do anything either.
Irrelevant. It’s up to musixmatch to pay the creators or supplier of their content, not Spotify.
Cool story, 10/10 would read again.
What a strange, strange reply to my post.
Spotify is receiving money for something they did not create.
Spotify are paying musixmatch for the lyrics.
Most people don't pirate stuff on their phones. I use an iPhone and my hundreds of gigabytes of pirated stuff is available on my iPhone via plexamp/plex/etc.
Spotify don’t just sell lyrics lol. The lyrics are just another of the features that require premium.
