Spotify needs to embrace a user-centric payment model (where a portion of your subscription fee goes directly toward artists you listen to the most) rather than the current “pooled” system which massively favors large artists.

YouTube, for instance splits 55% of its YouTube Premium subscription revenue with creators, who get paid based on their share of watch time. Your YouTube Premium fee is distributed to the creators you view the most.
