floofloofNeil Young returns to Spotify as other streaming services begin hosting "disinformation podcasts": "I cannot leave all those services because my music would have no outlet to music lovers at all"
“I cannot leave all those services because I really like all the money my music would have no outlet to music lovers at all”
WodgeConsidering how little spotify pays out per play, it’s not really about the money.
I mean, it is Neil Young. We’re not talking some mumblecore rapper from Minnesota. He’s going to put up some big numbers. All those 0.01$ add up.
Eh.
Stephen Stills is one of the other major members of Young’s supergroup, Crosby Stills Nash & Young, and Stephen Stills currently is listed as having 286,696 monthly listeners on Spotify.
Gola Gianni is a random rapper that I have never heard of before searching the word “mumblecore” on Spotify, and he has 328,039 monthly listeners listed on Spotify.
I think you’re both severely overestimating how many people are actually listening to a lot of these “classic” artists and also severely underestimating how popular random flash-in-the-pan artists are on Spotify.
