My wife and I just got Amazon Prime for the kids and us to hire films occasionally.
We also have Spotify.
I noticed really quickly that virtually every old film such as the 1970's Silent Running etc etc still have a high rent value of £7.99! Even old kids shows from the 1970's like "The Flowpot men" are £44.95 for just one season. The f**king Flowerpot men!!!!!
However for £10 per month on Spotify I can virtually listen to every song ever recorded endlessly free except for the £10 membership (remember Amazon Prime has a yearly membership fee)
So even legitimate streaming channels are in my mind essentially devaluing music to the point of worthless.
Were as the film industry seem to have been clever enough to have maintained the intrinsic value in the visual mediums. Maybe because a few local actors can't get together and make their own "Hollywood Blockbuster"?
I make music these days for the pleasure of making music, as music is my lifelong passion, but I have to agree with Mr Daltrey, the industry as a working market has collapsed.
Can you at least switch to Apple Music? It pays the creators more. Spotify is absolutely criminal.

I didn't know that, I thought all streaming services were as bad for the artists as each other.
I only pay for Spotify monthly, so changing should be easy.
I will look into it, there are certain artists my wife likes to listen to and I like a fair amount of jazz and classical stuff so as long as those genres and artists are available I have no special desire to use Spotify over Apple Music.

I may be wrong, but last I looked Apple Music forced everything in your iTunes collection into the cloud, which would mean you have iCloud storage issues/fees/etc and much higher data usage. Also criminal. For example, I have 4200+ tracks in iTunes, a mix of rips from my own CD collection and client mixes. All at higher quality.

You have a choice whether it's in the cloud or not.
