This is rich considering early days Spotify was built on piracy.

robtherobber•1mo ago
Indeed. When it started, Spotify populated its beta versions with plenty of MP3s that were only available on The Pirate Bay, had unlicensed music to kick-start the platform [0], and Daniel Ek was the CEO of uTorrent [1] before it was sold to BitTorrent Inc.

Initially Spotify tech was p2p. To quote Rasmus Fleischer, who wrote about Spotify, "Spotify’s beta version was originally a pirate service. It was distributing MP3 files that the employees happened to have on their hard drives." [0]

The company may have turned into a billion-dollar company, with pirate roots. [2]
