  I am once again begging you, if u must stream music, to consider any of the competitors from the chart below that pay artists better than Spotify. "According to a shocking new book, Spotify has been promoting so-called 'ghost artists' so it can avoid paying its piddling royalties to real artists":

  According to a shocking new book, Spotify has been promoting "ghost artists" so it can avoid paying piddling royalties to real artists.

    Hey so if you still use Spotify: Streaming services are bad for artists but have you noticed yours is *the worst*?? Their rates are consistently under everyone AND for 85% of the music on the platform they don't pay out at all. Tidal, Deezer, Napster, Apple pay 2-3 times as much. Qobuz is like 4x.

  Here’s the thread for what I’ve been reading in May. And to start this off here’s a photo I did for a bookstack to spell May.

  A Banned Book I love is the Hunger Games series. It was banned in: - USA - Vietnam - Thailand Maybe more places but those are the ones I know of. I’ve found it interesting why this one was banned and love it even more after reading some of them. What’s a banned book you love? #booksky 📚
