Spotify has raised prices for the second time in a year, with no new benefits, after its CEO sparked outrage by claiming the cost of creating 'content' is 'close to zero'
Spotify is usually reported as one of the worst paying for the artists.
They also don't distribute the value by time listened, but pool in and award the largest artists (don't remember the specifics, you might need to look it up).
They were also found/accused of using their auto generated playlists with made-up artists who's money goes to 'noone', just shady stuff.
