Does your average artist even generate enough revenue to support themselves off of Spotify payouts? Unless you have some high level of popularity, I'd imagine most artists pull in less than minimum wage from Spotify. I can't imagine funding the entire staff of a newsroom with this kind of model is even remotely viable, let alone at the local level.
