I agree, but nearly everyone I know has either Spotify or Amazon music.

And also most of them don't really care about this. I've been a musician since I was 13 and have made most of my income over my life from either recording, teaching or playing music, so I guess I have more of a dog in this fight.

I think it needs to be that the majority-used systems are made more fair - as with most things, people won't sacrifice ease of use for equity!




The solution is to pull your music off the platforms and charge your own price for it. You will likely find that no one purchases it and you get forgotten because very few people want to pay more for music when there is unlimited music available at a cheaper price.

You can’t force people consume your content and that they pay more for it. There is such a massive supply of music that naturally the cost will be quite low.
