    If anyone is curious, online estimators put 80 million streams on Spotify at an average payout of ~$190,000. That’s to the record label though, not the artist themselves.

      I don’t understand how the record labels are wearing that payout for that number of streams from their bigger artists who aren’t big enough to warrant an individual deal like Swift or the Beatles. It has to be a huge pay cut from the money they would have been earning pre streaming from physical sales.

      I’ve been independently releasing my own music on Spotify and other streaming services for almost 4 years and have made $26. And this year has more streams than any previous!
