To me the unfairness is not the distribution of it, that may be fine, whats unfair is how little the artist makes per listen.
1000 streams about 2 dollars
on youtube 1000 views pays about 15 bucks, massive difference, particularly when views can be had by the stupidest of things such as how to floss properly, that can make way more money than one of the finest of a singer songwriter song.
On Spotify its all music, maybe talk or comedy streams i dont know, but i concern myself more with the indie, and they are usually publisher artist and everything all rolled into one, and yet they get a quarter of a penny.
I guess the lesson if any, is to put your music on youtube and not so much spotify.
