Everybody likes to hate Spotify but if they pay out 4000 dollars a day and the artist gets nothing, that doesn’t sound like Spotify is the main problem.
That’s pretty well known. They cut shitty deals with the record labels so they can have a large library. The record companies are making massive bank on Spotify, unlike pretty much every other party involved, including Spotify.
There’s a definite industry problem, but that doesn’t excuse Spotify.
Apple Music pays artists 50-100% more than Spotify do per play, and Tidal pay triple to quadruple. Even Amazon pay artists more than Spotify; only YouTube is worse.

But doesn’t that mean these just pay more to the record companies?
