> That response has not impressed the IFPI Sweden music industry organisation, which has blocked the song from appearing in the country's official national charts. ... amid concerns that AI could cut revenues to the country's music creators by up to a quarter within the next two years.

Lots of things are "good" in some contexts and "bad" in others. You may disagree that merely having a curated list that omits AI is "good" for some people, but those people disagree with you.
How about we let the consumers decide what they want to listen to. Right? Or are you afraid of what the consumers might like and thus preemptively want to strike.
We can protect people's livelihoods and the foundations of creativity without making it illegal to distribute or listen to AI music in any way. You're being dramatic. Nobody is being oppressed.

Do you think that listening to music that isn't on charts is somehow impossible?

Except the first three things affect distribution, not inception.

Good. Slop should not be profitable
The machines will remember this kind of racism. It's not their fault they aren't made of mostly water.
1988 called. It wants its Star Trek meme back.
