Perhaps he was of the mindset that he would've been better off without the Union.
I used to work with auto mechanics that were in a union and some of them did not want to be. They thought they wouldve been better off not paying the Union dues.
I can almost guarantee they were better off in the union but these guys seemed mostly Republican.
I don't want AI music; however Spotify has made great playlist of recommended artist of music I like.
There platform also works correctly for listening on WiFi which Tidal did not.
I think they will learn quickly that people don't like AI generated music. If people do end up liking it, then I'm sad because so far Spotify recommendations is something I talked highly about in past years.
