Who are you supporting? Lawyers. Accountants. Coders.
As a coder, I can get behind this. Well, some of it.
Who am I supporting?
I'm a guy who uses a streaming service to find new music. Periodically, I'll make a list of the things I want to go ahead and buy in some form, and buy them.
I buy basically as a way of "voting" for the music I like, and to support musicians. Something I've always wondered about, though, is who am I supporting when I buy the music of deceased artists? Not the artists, obviously. I assume in many cases their families get some royalties. But where does the money generally go? Is the label just gobbling up those dollars?
I listen to a lot of jazz and blues, and the bulk of the artists are no longer with us.
