          If they get paid by number of people listening… yeah bigger exposure means more money.

          Not that I imply it is how it works, maybe Spotify has a dump sum of money for a year or similar stuff, no idea.

        So now destroying smaller local communities as large scale productions can now be spread to markets they weren’t originally intended for?

        Bigger audience sure, but I’d imagine there’s a fee for the translation as well, or some other catch.

          I don’t like making assumptions, but knowing Spotify almost certainly.

          They might offer it for free at first but once a couple of people publicly make bank they’ll make it a premium charge and dangle it front of hopefuls, no doubt in my mind.

            Or, knowing Spotify, they will just do it anyway and just quietly increase their cut.
