He's 100% right. (Still a douche for what he did to Bandcamp though)

What has he done to bandcamp?

[-] flamingos@feddit.uk 2 points 5 days ago

He bought the company to bolster his lawsuits against Apple and Google, only to fob it off to Songtradr a few years later in the middle of the staff unionising. Songtradr then sacked half the staff (coincidentally all the ones who were part of the union) and still refuse to recognise the union to this day.
