Joe initially said he didn't want to go to Spotify because they don't pay creators.

I guess a few million made that thought go away.

Let's not forget when Howard Stern went to satellite radio. That deal was worth $500M.

He also said he's quit when he got bored with it. Hard to do when you're in a multi-year licensing deal.

More than that, I think he brings in 30mm a year on his own, for a multiyear deal I bet its way over 200mm

Sounds like they started paying creators.

They are paying a handful of creators who have leverage. I don't think they're making any changes to their per-play payouts.
