You think that the developers and every other party involved costs less than 50% here? Devs cost a lot. Bandwidth and servers don't cost that much, but for large scale data transfer like spotify, it does. Running the company costs a lot. Maybe the fair price is double what it currently is. But that might result in the artists making less than they currently do, not more (this is, in fact, my suspicion - if Spotify could increase profits by charging more, they would already be doing so).
