While sure, there is leverage, but it's not like Spotify is being arbitrary about their content. I can listen to obscure stuff, and I do. Also don't forget that big artists are often big for a reason and it's usually not for a lack of talent, taste just varies but certainly there always is a market for 'pop music'.
