Spotify screws over artists.
For a million plays Lady GaGa got $167 (£108), imagine what the labels got as downloading usually costs £0.50+ a song legally...
Artists need to put a donation button on their website so people can use 'illegal' means but still get the money to them without goign through the labels.
