Not really. We are just being paid enough so that we do not leave for somewhere else.

The ones who really benefit are the shareholders.

Coincidentally, the same people who didn't do any of the work.

This is how capitalism works though. There's no way Spotify can be expected to fundamentally change the economic system they exist in. Reversing that is heading into the realm of revolution.
