Pfff, too late spotify. I've already switched to one of your competitors. Allowing AI "artists" at all is unacceptable. No sale.
Which competitor doesn't allow them?
Bandcamp

And unlike streaming sites, you own what you buy, and the artist gets paid much better; you'd have to stream the same song 200+ times with a premium Spotify account to generate the same profit for the artist as just buying the song outright on Bandcamp.
Yeah, but Bandcamp isn't an alternative to Spotify.
It's an alternative to streaming.
Sounds like it's still an alternative!
I'm using Qobuz. Seems alright so far, unless someone knows something I don't (totally possible lol)
not exactly a competitor since it’s a music marketplace, not a streaming service, but bandcamp does not allow ai-generated music
