I am just going to flip this argument to put things in perspective and add a bit of contrast.

What is the value again? Playing music?

Spotify could just charge for services rendered, ie number of hours played, rather than a flat fee.

You could, and any other music service could compete with Spotify on pricing. The difference here is that Apple also compete with Spotify with their own music service while they also want a 30% cut on Spotifys income.

And Apple would still demand 30% of it. Not sure how Spotify's fee structure has anything to do with Apple's fans' arguments that they're totally not behaving anticompetitively.
