I'm not endorsing this article or viewpoint, but Ian's framing seems right.
Assuming the presumed death of DSPs starts now, I don't see any reason that third parties won't continue to insert themselves into the music industry and become parasites unless musicians say "absolutely not."
Which is not historically what happens.
@alisynthesis this is why I really want indie-led open streaming to be a thing, and why I’ve been working on Chorus (https://mecagorp.com/chorus/).
