It's Spotify and the rest of the music business that needs investigating, convicting, fines and restitution!

A New "Dirty Little Music Industry Secret" Should end the Investigations into Apple's Music Streaming Business


Above: The good guys

Ministry of Sound chief executive Lohan Presencer is no fan of music-streaming service Spotify, but in his latest public speech he reserved more criticism for the major labels that license it.

Presencer noted in his speech that "As we have seen from the Sony WikiLeaks emails, they are incentivised to deliver short-term goals. So what they do is all driven by that … and the decisions they have made have completely fucked everyone up the arse."

Presencer concluded with this: "Why would anyone want to start a fucking music service?! Why would anyone want to go and negotiate with those beasts?"
