2. Artist’s Spotify streams divided by total Spotify streams
This calculates an artist’s popularity on the service, their
“market share.” Dividing an artist’s streams by the total
streams on Spotify determines the percentage of our total
pay-outs that should be paid for that artist’s rights.
This sucks bigtime. Why should artists that I never listen to receive any of my monthly subscription? This portion of the calculation should be done on a per subscription basis.
