As the online music streaming hub Spotify has grown more popular, it has also earned itself some very vocal and high-profile critics -- many of whom decry the failure of the service and others like it to make money for musicians. Most recently, the Black Keys declined to make their latest album, 'El Camino,' available for online streaming.

"[Streaming services] are becoming more popular, but it still isn't at a point where you're able to replace royalties from record sales with the royalties from streams," drummer Patrick Carney told VH1.
