Daniel Ek's investments in AI dronemaker Helsing have unnerved artists. One called Spotify a "violent armageddon portal."

    Love that my choice for streaming music boils down to “which greedy, amoral billionaire do I want to support with my money?” It’s so great here.

          They pay the artists pretty fairly compared to others too
