Im sure this has been asked before and I tried to do some of the googler but much like everything else on the googler if you look at one site it says one thing and another has a different answer. I would like to stream from whatever platform is most beneficial to the artists obviously but I'm not sure which that is?

They all appear to pay artists between .003 and .008 ish per stream (which seems super pathetic but I have no idea either) and they all seem like they have incredibly complicated sets of if this then that items that determines exactly how much they pay. I assume this is to screw the artists who are doing all the work to create their music so the people that are just letting 1s and 0s sit on their platforms rake in the real money. Which one screws them the least is what I am asking? Want to do what I can to support them (obviously buying the music directly is probably best but beyond that, I can buy it and still stream it while Im working and stuff just to throw them a few extra pennies)
