About this listen

Spotify doesn't pay a fixed rate per stream, so how do artists get paid? We explain the stream-share model, how money moves to labels, distributors, publishers, and songwriters, and why per-stream numbers you see online keep changing. We also cover the 2024 rule requiring 1,000 streams before a track earns, Discovery Mode, and the debate over user-centric payouts.
