As I understand the process, artists create a facsimile recording, an image of the sound, and a publisher is then authorized to replicate and distribute that image so others can get a sense of the original sound.
So just how is Spotify uniquely privileged different from Tin Pan Alley Sheet Music Publishers?

Trump’s fundamental problem:
He and his White House seem to think that the cost of their policies
— the fallout from their effort to mold the country to fit their nativist and mercantilist obsessions
— are indirect.
Who cares about a few thousand protesters in Los Angeles or even a few million undocumented immigrants out of the more than 340 million people in the United States?
But the reality is that to harden the border and more tightly police immigration
Finally, with a hundred thousand dead, two thirds of the buildings bombed, all the hospitals and infrastructure destroyed, more than a million people on the verge of starvation, and Israel's leadership even more openly bragging about their intent to ethnically cleanse the area, it's gone on "too long".
Well done Lammy and Starmer. You finally noticed eh?
So trade deal talks are off, and weapons export licenses are... Well. We'll see. "Always Under Review" they say.
And the main reason for the slight and tiny change in emphasis? Mostly Trump. They are following Trump. They feel easier criticizing Israel's genocide now Trump looks easier with it.
