Interestingly, YouTube paid .011 cents for a song streamed to a subscriber in August of this year while the same song played on Apple Music (also a subscription stream) earned .008 cents. Do with that information what you will.

Streaming musician here. Can confirm. For a single play, one of my songs on Spotify in April 2024 garnered .0064 cents while the same song on Tidal paid a whopping .0089 cents. Sadly I've not had any plays on Tidal since then but can't imagine the payout has changed that much.
