Spotify maybe cheap compared to Netflix.

Not having lossless audio and paying artists less is ridiculous.
- maccard 2y agoWe have duo for my wife and I, so Spotify is £8.50/month each. Apple Music is £11/mo. 60% of my listening is through a pair of AirPods over Bluetooth, 30% on a Sonos system and 10% using semi decent wired headphones. Lossless isn’t something that is a differentiator for me. I have some music on both Spotify and Apple Music - the reality is that even with a few thousand streams per month we haven’t even made back the cost of 2 hours of rehearsal space. The reality is that for artists making a living off this, the problem isn’t the difference between 75 and 80% that Spotify holds onto, it’s the fact that the artist only sees 15-20% of what’s left over.
