That metric is what it comes down to though. Measure as you like - the way they are paying is unfair toward the content creators. The thing is their price rises won't benefit the small artists as much as the big ones. Even if they raised the cost for subscriptions - it's disproportionally distributed. The big boys are the ones that cash it all. And that's further accelerated through their playlist strategies, which makes it that music with already wide reach is recycled over and over, wheras smaller artists are pushed out even more. Their algorithms are biased in a way that punishes those that need premiums the most. If you want to directly support artists, use bandcamp. They cash in only 15% of the payment, Paypal takes a small cut but the rest goes directly to the musician or band. If you're a cheap fuck that wants access to everything without paying as much, keep using your gay Spotify and supporting that rigged system.

I don't get this mentality, I mean back in the day a single album used to cost as much as a Spotify sub. I totally understand the irritation of raising prices, but hasn't Spotify only raised prices twice in like 15 years? I feel like that's absolutely expected within reason, especially when you're getting unlimited music for the price of a single album, I mean ffs songs on iTunes used to be a dollar to 1.29 a pop

To be frank, I don’t think that outage cost them as much as you think it did lol. I spoke with folks that merely shrugged it off “eh, it happens”. And it was long enough ago now, I think people forgot it happened haha. As you said, things change. Sure CS has an alert only option, but they have plenty of offering to go on top of that. And they will offer good prices to get new customers in a competitive situation. Unusual Onion is right, you certainly don’t get fired to ponying up for crowdstrike.
