        sued into oblivion and they didn’t want to sell out the business; more like being forced into marriage with your rapist

      Oh wow! I used to use grooveshark as a kid but my mom thought it was a piracy site and didn’t let me use it on her laptop. Haven’t thought about that site in a while, thanks for your work!

        it was literally the same exact business model as youtube. the big four labels were suing youtube at the same time for the same reason as grooveshark. then google bought youtube and they “settled” - grooveshark got sued into oblivion and took a dear friend from me (suicide)
