I've been seeing this pop up in my news lately:
https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigatio ... 025-01-29/

//Spotify convinced a New York federal judge on Wednesday to dismiss a lawsuit that accused the streaming service of underpaying songwriting royalties for tens of millions of songs.
U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres rejected a complaint, from the royalty-gathering nonprofit Mechanical Licensing Collective, which argued that Spotify had misreported its revenue to avoid paying millions of dollars owed to the group.//
The question is does it treat people that have less streams unfairly and does someone like landr that owns a percentage of alot of small streamers decides it is owed money... I tend to just promote the brand and requiring more streams might be a way to lower the number of providers boing promoted.. It is an interesting topic for sure.
Spotify's recent legal victory underscores the intricate dynamics of royalties in the streaming industry. While the lawsuit was dismissed, it raises broader questions about the platform's societal impact and the therapeutic potential of music.
