Spot on

I happily subscribe to spotify premium and hope that the little dribble that gets back to artists gets there. Some months I use it sometimes not.

I have 300 or 400 vinyl albums which I started collecting at 32 and 6 pence a I remember

But I don't try and get round it. If you are that poor I'm sorry for you and will try to help...

Threw out 300-500 cassettes yesterday because my wife wanted the room (?)

How much money have I given to artists in my life? Probably not enough.

My lifetimes paid income from music is probably less than a £1000 (I'm recalculating as I type)

So my spotify subscription seems ok. It's a business model that apparently works or not. But it isn't my problem to sort it.

My son his on spotify and holy shit can he play the guitar (not in this genre and he's made tuppence but also realised that he didn't want to live in a van)
