Stockholm, San Francisco and Washington, 1995 to 2025. A law written for satellite radio, a compression format released to the world for free, and a Swedish teenager who could not buy the records he wanted combine into a business that pays for music by the fraction of a cent. Rob Reid licenses the first legal on-demand catalog and nearly goes broke doing it. Daniel Ek and Gustav Söderström build a service faster than stealing and hand the major labels a fifth of the company to get the rights. By 2024 the thing pays out ten billion dollars a year, and the argument over whether that is a great deal of money or almost none is an argument about division. Covers Rob Reid, Daniel Ek, Martin Lorentzon, Gustav Söderström, Listen.com, Rhapsody, and Spotify.
