Spotify has around 20 million songs [1], so around 20% of songs are never played.
Two random questions:
- How much is Spotify paying to host those unplayed songs?
- How many of songs have a small number of plays? (< 5 plays, for example)?

- drharris 13y agoStorage is cheap with digital music. Even assuming 10 MB/song, you're looking at 40TB, less than $4k/mo on S3. It's not trivial, but it's probably a drop in the bucket compared to their other costs. Realistically the file sizes are much less than 10MB.
