I was deeply uncertain of who I was and who I wanted to be. I really thought I wanted to be a much cooler guy than what I was.

There are millions of people who consume music illegally every month. Just getting them into a legal service will make the music industry way bigger than it's ever been before.

At Spotify, we really want you to democratically win as a musician. We want you to win because your music is the best music.

The main reason people want to pay for Spotify is really portability. People are saying, 'I want to have my music with me.'

I actually bought a travel guitar, and that guitar is really cool. You can actually fold the guitar, and you can plug headphones into it, but it's acoustic, or semi-acoustic.

At the end of the day, I want the music industry to be larger than what it is today.
