    This should theoretically at least be illegal, as they abuse the power of the platform to favor certain tracks unfairly.

          Spotify is AFAIK Swedish

          It was started in Sweden where its operations are still based, but it’s headquartered in Luxembourg and it chose to IPO on the New York Stock Exchange.

          Luxembourg screams “tax efficiency” to me, so their list of pre-IPO investors must be quite the thing.

            I disagree, I live in Scandinavia in one of the best democracies in the world.
            EU is mostly OK IMO. Democracy can never be perfect, because it’s about compromises. But without the compromises you’ll have a real dystopia.
            But here is just about as good as it gets at our current level of development.
            So get real why don’t you?

        Indeed. Regulation is deeply unpopular these days. At least with the oligarchs.
