The last update that I saw was that Spotify would be in the green if it didn't have to give severance pay to a large number of employees after mass layoffs, and also some real estate expenses that seem pretty unusual for a streaming service to have...? They should just ask Wisconsin to build them a place for free, those idiots will do anything for industry.

they would be in the green if they didn't outsource music publishing, ironically.
