According to this Swedish firm:

“Having more listeners on our platform creates more opportunities for artists and podcasters to make a living from their work. And more creators means more audio content for our users to discover,” said Alex Norström, Spotify’s chief freemium business officer. “This creates an essential flywheel between creators and listeners that is the foundation of our business — and in the end, it is what will propel the audio industry forward.” 

Spotify launched in 2008 as a music streaming platform but later allowed its users to listen to podcasts, audiobooks, and meditations. And in the fourth quarter of 2020, the company reached 345 million monthly active users across 95 countries. Additionally, of those 155 million are premium paying subscribers and charging $9.99 for getting access to the premium service.\
