Honestly, Spotify is probably at the top of my "pirate if possible" list. I've been a guest performer on a couple of tracks and seen some backend stuff, and let me tell you, the only people you're depriving of income are the ones who are already wealthy giants. Spotify robs the rest of them blind already.
You wanna know what 50k listens to a song totals out to for someone who isn't a huge name? $50.
Alright but Spotify is one of the very few subscriptions that are actually easier than pirating. As long as you have a family plan, it is great value for money.
I don't know of a good way to support artists outside of direct transactions.
If you’re a student you pay $5 a month for Spotify, plus you get Hulu with ads, and Shotime.
Literally the only reason I subscribe to Spotify is because my car has an integrated spotify app...
