People who were buying tracks from iTunes are still likely buying them. People streaming from Spotify are either no longer getting them from Limewire or have turned to Spotify as opposed to listening on Youtube. The way I see it, Spotify is monetizing listens that would have otherwise earned them nothing.
Leave it to a record label to complain about another company willing to do the legwork to monetize a crowd that shunned the pay-per-download model.
