As a musician with a small catalog on the streaming sites, everyone other than Spotify seems to pay at least something. I am still on Apple Music despite my issues with the UI because they actually pay a good amount for streams. I got more from a handful of streams in TikTok than from thousands of streams on Spotify. The truth is that unless your big, your basically putting music on Spotify for free.

Qobuz pays more, and is currently I think the best corporate choice
