podcast of an ex-music executive saying that most labels use bots to grow the numbers of new artists, getting the song more authority so that real listeners feel like listening. With this system they also negotiate a bigger cut with Spotify and a few perks so that this whole mechanism keeps working under the radar. He then goes on to saying that they hate when independent artists get anything beyond 3k streams a day on a single song because they aren't really earning anything from it, so then they get annoying and do takedowns, pretend you are breaking some sort of policy to make your life harder. So it's super unfair, either you get signed to a label with connections, or be ready to face some restrictions at some point.
