It seems like everyone is looking for freebies these days.

And what is wrong with that? Everyone has enough of bills and humongous taxes already. Everywhere I go only hear pay, pay, pay & pay more.

Nothing in a sense, but in regards to this post, and Weird Al's case it is.

I just wonder why pirat this album when it is available for free on spotify? As I am listening to it right now?
Spotify pays for the rights to songs. Some of the the ad revenue you generate, and the money from your premium subscription go towards music artists.

Yes I know that. But I have spotify without ads and I did not purchased premium or pay for anything. So I refer to it as free music because it is uninterrupted streaming service without ads or others annoying things.
