Spotify: acrially a Swedish company, but one of the worst companies out there. I hate Apple but at least they are paying artists better. Spotify actively supports scammers (with AI music and phone farms) and breaks the law by promoting artists connected to their stakeholders.

Deezer is owned by a Russian oligarch who funds the US republican party.

Don't know about the rest. But as far as I know there are no music streaming services with a moral compass.

But they are not USA, we have a war to win!
