Yeah I’d be insulted. I think a good compromise would be to demand a higher amount, but to be donated to a charity.

Click bait. From an article last year:

- Comment on As someone who is aging. Late thirties. How can I keep my finger on the pulse of current trends, particularly in music? 8 months ago:
I think the difference is that as a kid music is forced on you from all kinds of sources: parents, friends, radio, etc. So you don’t realize how much time you actually spent just listening to new music.
As an Old, you probably don’t have nearly as much random exposure, i.e. you control when you listen to music now. Which means the answer to your question is that you have to consciously set aside time simply to listen to music. It may feel like a “waste of time” for each track you think is shit, but that’s just part of the process.
Good luck, and thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

The article is pay walled, but there’s no way they’re not selling that data. They’ll just sell it to a different middleman that isn’t technically a “data broker”.
