Many artists use self-service labels like CDBaby which take just 9%. So it is completely legitimate for artists to be focusing on per-stream royalties.

- wilg 3y agoThe label deal is irrelevant. The point is different streaming services offer different price points and revenue models (ad tiers, etc). It seems like all the streaming services take around the same percentage cut. This indicates that there is no obvious way for Spotify to get its customers to pay more, and it's likely they're serving the more price-sensitive part of the market.
