Some years ago, an artist who was not a mega-star but was on all the major music services published an article detailing how well each one paid. I'm now kicking myself for not bookmarking it. I clearly remember Spotify being among the worst, if not the worst.

The musician I saw last week mentioned that he'll get more money if you buy a CD from him now than if you stream his catalog on spotify for the rest of your life.

Snoop Dogg said he got 45k for a billion streams.

I don't remember the artist's name. I'm pretty sure the article was a text post, probably a blog. Not a youtube video.
