It's not Spotify's responsibility to make sure indie artists are getting paid.
Well, it is definitely in Spotify's interest to keep as many quality artists as possible on Spotify, and that probably involves paying them.

Spotify's discovery playlist is a double edged sword. My account is permanently screwed because I decided to listen to a lot of rain sounds when going to sleep for a few months while I had a puppy. Now ALL I get for recommendations are calm sounds. I don't actually listen to these during the day, I want my old stuff. I hate it and want to reset the discovery playlist, but seems I have no way of doing so aside from ge…
If anybody wants to know how to earn $20/decade with Spotify I can throw some of my own experiences into a blog post :)

I wish they had a 'stealth' mode or at least an option to reset your tastes.
65,000 listeners a month – $800 in revenue. 1.23 cents per listener per month. That works out to 14.7 cents per year. To earn a modest $50,000, you would need ~360,000 monthly listeners. This doesn't seem sustainable without outside sources of revenue.

50 000$ isn't modest in most parts of the world.

One more reason why I prefer Google Play. The recommendations are based off a single station. If you start a new station it starts from scratch.
It's interesting to see him use SEO to describe algorithmic playlists. He would know, SEO is a huge part of his other business.
