You want people using your product because it's a part of your life, then they can't stop using it.

My interactions with Sorkin were agonisingly weird. He is by far the weirdest person I have ever met. I had dinner with him and a few hours before I got an e-mail from his assistant saying, 'Sean, this does not need to be a long conversation. Aaron is only going to use it to win your trust.'

You can now be a master of your own destiny. I'm not sure why you would sign up with a record label.

Solving specific problems is what drives me. I am not interested in having a career. I never have been.

One of the difficulties in living the lifestyle I lead is that it is hard to get my friends in one place.

There's definitely some sort of dissent brewing between record labels, publishing companies and artists [about the compensation they get from streaming services] Spotify is returning a HUGE amount of money [to the record labels]. If we continue growing at our current rate in terms of subscriptions and downloads, we'll overtake iTunes in terms of contributions to the recorded music business in under two years.

Look: There's good creepy and there's bad creepy. Today's creepy is tomorrow's necessity.
