From Napster to Spotify: How Music Piracy Shaped the Subscription Economy (subscriptocracy.com)

Lol. I predicted this would happen in the early 2000s, and I finally got to see it happen. Companies didn't want to deal with piracy anymore and made everything a service. The same thing has now happened with software.

The only think piracy has done is entrench big players and push out any small company from making a living. Bravo!!
