? 我覺得與蘋果凶伙、谷歌蘑辑、亞馬遜相比, spotily最大的優(yōu)勢在于:分享型利潤模型蜻拨。①先用利益共享的形式吸收歌手等高質量作品玩徊，擴大歌曲供應量,吸引用戶驶臊，實現(xiàn)互贏;②再以免費提供快速優(yōu)質的聽歌服務為手段然想，快速擴大用戶規(guī)模,擴大品牌知名度侍郭，利用品牌知名度吸引廣告商投資后獲利;形成“供應-提高知名度-廣告盈利”的循環(huán)盈利模式棚壁。

2008年10月继榆，Spotify 在瑞典首都斯德哥爾摩正式上線。2018年4月汁掠， Spotify 完成夙愿略吨，正式在紐約證券交易所上市。作為世界上用戶基數(shù)最大考阱、付費用戶量最多的流媒體音樂平臺翠忠，Spotify 這家擁有十年歷史的公司長期扮演著行業(yè)領頭羊的角色。
Spotify 的收入主要來自免費服務中的廣告收入和付費用戶的訂閱收入乞榨。然而秽之，盡管付費用戶數(shù)正穩(wěn)步增長当娱，Spotify 仍未扭虧為盈，因為其收入的大部分都用來購買音樂版權政溃，成本費用十分高昂趾访。
上市前一天，Daniel Ek（Spotify 的 CEO）在博文中寫到董虱，“上市不應該是公司最重要的一天扼鞋，焦點并不是上市首日‘濺起多少水花’，這一事件并不會改變 Spotify 的定位愤诱、使命和運營目標云头。”
對于普遍未能實現(xiàn)規(guī)模盈利的流媒體音樂行業(yè)來說淫半，這份堅韌和清醒同樣可貴溃槐。
