Sure.. music instruments and the electricity to feed a stage are free.
Absolutely not, I did not imply that, the post is about digital reproduction/ownership of music (if I haven't misunderstood it)
And that is, basically, free, a very "low" cost of copying bytes. What we pay on Spotify and Apple Music are not the artists, not their instruments or recording hardware or mastering software.
We pay the intermediaries.
Concerts, museums, theatres, etc, have high costs so I'm completely fine for them to cost money to the visitors.
