1.2 Controversial policies and alleged behaviors.1.1.2 Spotify's "artist-in-residence" aid.1.1 Allegations of unfair artist compensation.Spotify has also attracted media attention for several security breaches, as well as for controversial moves including a significant change to its privacy policy, "pay-for-play" practices based on receiving money from labels for putting specific songs on popular playlists, and allegedly creating "fake artists" for prominent playlist placement, which Spotify denies. Record labels keep a large amount of Spotify earnings. Spotify claims it benefits the industry by migrating users away from piracy and less monetized platforms and encouraging them to upgrade to paid accounts. The tier has led to a variety of major album releases being delayed or withdrawn from the service. Spotify faces particular scrutiny due to its free service tier, which allows users to listen free with advertisements between tracks. Multiple artists have criticised the policy, most notably Thom Yorke and Taylor Swift, who temporarily withdrew their music from the service. Spotify distributes approximately 70% of its total revenue to rights holders, who then pay artists based on their individual agreements. Unlike physical sales or downloads, which pay artists a fixed price per song or album sold, Spotify pays royalties based on the artist's "market share"-the number of streams for their songs as a proportion of total songs streamed on the service. Spotify, a music streaming company, has attracted significant criticism since its 2006 launch, mainly over artist compensation.

Spotify’s “2020 Wrapped” was all positive reinforcement, neatly packaged and made to share on social, but people who go through the dragging that is “How Bad is Your Spotify” are also sharing their results on social media to demonstrate just how hard the AI came for them. So that feels gratuitous.įinally, the AI will tell you just how bad your taste in music is, qualifying it with labels that feel oddly specific, including, but not limited to, “learns-about-rap-from-tiktok bad” or “scented-candle-and-hard-seltzer bad.” It’ll also react to some of your most-played music asking you if you’re OK – a condition we are all very clearly not in 2020. It’ll wonder, with a disparaging air of incredulity, if you listen to certain songs. If it sees too much Taylor Swift (and let’s face it, it probably will), it’ll point that out. This bot has no patience for any of your guilty pleasures. Spotify got a big boost this year from an unexpected audience
