Right around the same time struggling artists thought paying $40 for global distribution via Spotify and not getting paid anything for their 100 streams a month was being "ripped off". And I think that is related to influencer culture. Everyone thinks they deserve to be famous and needs someone to blame for their below average art not making them rich.
