Even if there is content, statistically there is no pressure to change the whole picture.

Spotify pays less and less for niches. Algorithms recommend more and more superstars.

People are not prepared to pay for the niche individuals more than they need to. These individuals have harder time to make a living from that. They cannot focus on that. Over time, there is less and less individuals.

Is it true that there’s less and less individuals? All of the niche interests I personally have are much, much easier to satisfy now than they were 20 years ago - many of them have multiple full time content creators dedicated to that specific niche.

  • Publishing the content is as easy as it gets , that is true. But there are less people who can fully invest their time for that. They don't get enough compensation.
