Singer and songwriter Roseanne Cash has testified passionately before Congress on the need for copyright reform. But Johnny Cash's little girl also has some strong opinions about music streaming – including paid services like Spotify. She took to Facebook this week to throw a few bombs at what she sees as pirates dressed in new clothing.

Cash also said her music had been streamed by Spotify 600,000 times over an 18-month period, resulting just $104 in royalties. She did not clarify, however, if that payment was for her as a songwriter or artist royalties funnelled through a label.
