I don't think Spotify is evil, but I do think their business model doesn't make sense.
I mean, it sounds great. Pay 10-15 bucks a month and listen to all the music you want, whenever you want. What an amazing business idea!
But has anyone stepped back and asked if this is actually possible? Because when your artists are getting paid crumbs I don't see how this system continues.
100% agree. I think the subscription should be more like $30/$40 per month based on the value you get but of course users would never pay that!
So I wonder if there would ever be a middle ground between what artists would accept and what users would pay?
