Fully AI-generated tracks reportedly account for about a third of Apple’s monthly uploads, yet generate less than 0.5 percent of listening.

(2) Many of the other issues discussed, IMO, were not super-accurately conveyed, and I certainly believe that the Club was better off (a) not taking the deal and (b) embracing its fan-led culture. So in the end, I think the right outcome was reached.
Replying to @paradox303_

(2) But unless there's a class action suit that shows a consistent pattern of fraudulent marketing and willful deception, it'll be difficult to make a dent. Until that suit comes, people should be as public as possible about their experiences with @stubhub and @TeamStubHub.
