I feel like you should take Spotify's audited financial statements about how much they make and how much they return to rights holders (~75% of revenue) more seriously than your back of the envelope estimates: https://investors.spotify.com/financials/default.aspx

Agreed. The above calculation for example does not account for the fact that Spotify pricing varies significantly between countries and can be as little as 1.60$ per month.

Indeed! I have a family account for 6 people here in Brazil and I pay around 0.77 USD per person.
