Artists don’t generally make money from music sales unless they self publish. Spotify gets the music out there and heard so people discover bands and go see them in concert and buy merch, which is where bands make their money.
It’s crazy that it’s 2023 and people still don’t understand this.
exactly. It is crazy that people still think that if you don't pay spotify it is the artists that loose money. Most of the subscription value goes to spotify and record labels themselves
