I disagree with the big labels, preservation is important and they are not selling this music anyways (at least not as scratchy old 78 recordings) but… I do stream a lot from the archive and I am not alone. There are apps for a ton of live music, all with bands that agreed to it.
But There is even a 78 app for listening to the 78’s.
I won’t use Spotify though.
m3u text based playlists kick ass. Everything else… Meh.
I’m pretty sure their point is that the two aren’t comparable. No one actually uses archive.org like a music streaming site, thus the suit would be ridiculous.
Don’t yall just love opening up the Way back machine page and loading up your playlist and using that instead of Spotify?
Fucking idiots.
