    Pretty much inevitable I’ve been amazed they went this long. $10 just does not seem sustainable.

      Im fairly sure they manage because they have so many subscriptions from people that barely use it.

      They basically pay out per song played - and server costs are also largely dependent on active users. So they balance out a very active person that might incur 15$ in cost with 5 inactive people that incur not even a dollar.
