    Spotify is worse not really beacuse it pays less but due to the way it pays the artist where all streams are pooled together. That incetivizes bot farms way too much and is the main reason i even tried anything else( tidal but i really didint like it so i got back ) . It really should have a model where your money goes to the artists you listened. In defence of spotify tho changing it is likely pain in the arse. Well not technicaly but i imagine they have countless contracts where the way of profit sahring is stated and would violate the agreement.
