Looks like the system can be gamed by an artist than listens to his 4 min track 24/7. If it pays about $0.007 per stream, listening to a 4 min song would pay out $75 - $10 of the subscription fee = $65/month/subscription. That wouldn't happen if the royalties redistribution was done on a per subscription basis.
