If you really listen 5 hours a day, Spotify pays nearly 4x for your music as you pay to them. (calculated with 300hrs/mo, 3.5min/song, and $.0075/song)

Good thing they have so much VC money to keep the lights on for a while.



Maybe they could offer a tiered subscription model wherein heavy users pay more?


How is 5 hours a day 300 hours a month?

5 * 30 = 150
