This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Is it even stealing when the front door is open and brings FLACs.
I don't know if it's stealing but I feel better knowing when I listen to music artists get paid
As someone else pointed out:
That's a lot of artists making music we enjoy who are able to eat at night
Theres also a lot of aritists having their media streamed by these companies who get absolutely zero because they're being robbed by Spotify and the industry at large
Just because Taylor Swift gets her cut doesn't mean its just and fair.
Infact, I'd say thats just concentrating wealth in the hands of power again.. So.. uhh.. I'mma keep "stealing" it and buying band merch instead.
And before Spotify, artists were able to make more money with physical media, that the customers owned for life. Spotify essentially made the situation worse for both the artist and the consumer.
Damn your memory really goes like this
People going down to the record store to buy CD's
Spotify :D
You really missed out a whole decade of music piracy and CD sales falling through the floor
