I get your point, but they do get tipped in a way. Spotify pays them based on listens.

Terminology does matter though. Tipping is a different model entirely and could increase revenue substantially. Spotify pays a streaming royalty and an incredibly low rate at that. Not to mention payout is old tech with archaic middlemen. Lightning payouts in real time for streams should be standard at the very least.
It's fun and cute when we are in this stage to zap,brip BTC, etc... But in the future, I don't see people ripping more than a few bucks worth of zaps per month
