[All Platforms] Artist payment

[lauravantatenho]

1. I was listening to the podcast reasons to be cheerful and there was a recent episode on the music industry and the effect of Covid on the music scene. They made me aware that only a very small percentage of my monthly subscription fees goes to the artists I actually listen to. I’d really like it if more, if not all, goes directly to the artists I play. This seems much more ethical and fair? Thank you. Laura

Now that Spotify prices will increase in Europe, will the extra money go to the musicians and creators?
