You can listen to all the music you want for $5 a month, or $0 if you don't mind sitting through ads. You can explore new genres, scour an artist's entire discography, and check out new releases literally the moment they come out, all without having to shell out $10 every time you want to give an album a listen. And you're
angry about this?

You do realize that there are artists who release their music online for free, right? Is Radiohead's
In Rainbows a bad album because it was released basically free of charge?
Plus, artists
do get paid per stream. You're not paying for the song directly, but by streaming it you're still giving them revenue. I don't see how it's any different.
