      I think your penultimate paragraph really touches on something there. If I'm paying £10 for a month of Spotify that's split over however many songs 3 hours a day. I don't and can't read for 3 hours a day and even if I did that's 10 books over a month minus the 30% at 70p or $1 which seems fairly accurate to expect of someone who pays for a subscription for books.

      I'm curious about audio books and what the difference is with them. (If you know) Do they exist in-between music and books? Do they lean more towards one or the other in terms of compensation?
