Now it'll go to some private equity vampire who will really ruin it

It went to Songtradr, who are mostly a music licencing company. So I'm guessing that at least initially things are going to stay the same but that musicians are going to get nagged into letting Songtradr put their stuff up on their big licencing store. And then enshittification, because that's how absolutely everything is going.

as of right now Songtradr is still run by actual musicians so it probably won’t be so bad

but that could always change down the road
