Is this were the case, why is Amazon's and Apple's pricing the same as Spotify's?

Spotify isn’t profitable. Apple and Amazon don’t need for their streaming products to be profitable as stand a line services.

Just like Microsoft doesn’t need for OneDrive to be profitable by itself - hence the “Dropbox problem”.

Do you think AppleTV+ is profitable as $7.99 stand alone service?
