When Daniel Ek burst into tears at Daniel T's performance, the audience may have mistakenly thought that the two giants in the music industry were about to usher in a moment of reconciliation.However, Daniel revealed that his tears were not moved by the music, but by recalling the hardships and hardships he had experienced along the way.He was adamant that he would not let anyone take away his brainchild, Spotify.

Daniel's emotional expression makes people think about why he has reached this point.From the initial ideal of just creating a platform for users to enjoy music, to now being mired in copyright disputes and profit distribution, Daniel's Spotify journey has been full of twists and turns.

Looking back at Daniel's confrontation with the record company, we can find that the difference in thinking between the two is like a chasm.Record companies are concerned about short-term profits and protecting the existing market, while Daniel sees the future trend of the digital music era. What he wants is a new platform that can connect artists and listeners and promote the spread of music.This forward-looking thinking puts him at odds with many traditional musicians.

Faced with Bobby's question-“Why can't you change the music industry?”——Daniel may have also reflected countless times deep in his heart.Has he ever regretted his approach to copyright?Have you ever imagined that if Spotify's vision had been pushed more forcefully, the situation would be different today?

Daniel's final words in the episode reveal a hint of regret.He admitted that perhaps he should have walked away from the negotiating table more firmly and told the labels that Spotify's terms were the way forward.Such an assumption makes one wonder, if history could be rewritten, would the fate of Daniel and Spotify change?

However, the reality is cruel.The distribution of benefits is never a matter of course. It is always a game for those who have the right to speak and the resources.In this game, although Daniel has lofty dreams and firm beliefs, he also has to face realistic challenges and compromises.

The final scene of the episode is a scene of Daniel and Bobby having a conversation under the Washington Monument in the United States.However, this was nothing more than a clever illusion. The real filming location was a performance in front of a green screen in the wilds of Sweden.The clever handling of this scene not only demonstrates the superb production standards of the streaming media platform Netflix, but also becomes the most powerful ending of the entire drama.It implies that although Daniel's musical journey is full of ups and downs, his dreams and persistence continue, and he will never give up his pursuit of the future no matter where he is.
