    It’s everybody coming together, it’s radio democratized. It’s a way that radio genuinely should be programmed: for people and not for profit

    I mean I’m genuinely in favor of the platform, because it sounds like an awesome idea. But it’s naive to pretend that Amazon’s not planning on squeezing it for a profit motive (e.g. paying the musicians whose music is being played essentially $0, far below even the puny shrunken royalties they get from streaming services in general).
