I'm not a fan of pro/anti dichotomies, but this one strikes me as ill-fitting.

You've heard Rubin's work, even if you haven't recognized it as such. Rubin is an artist; he's not an ideologue about business models, or even necessarily an advocate for subscription models. Rather, he offered his opinion that the business would likely head in that direction, so as to find great artists and make timeless music.

It can be argued that a flat-fee subscription model is more "free" than a pay-per-unit model.
