3.5$ per user(!, or should I say a fan ) is significantly more than just negligible compared with fractions of a cent for every user.

It is also more correct, your subscription is distributed to artists whose music you actually listened to. It repeat listens are accounted for, then it would be even more fair, since you usually listen more to your favorite artists.

Currently the distribution just isn't correct. This is probably because of technical reasons.

Agreed. It would make it possible for a much more democratic music system where the dedication of your fans matters more than sheer numbers.
But if you're so talented and have such good fans, why would you need to put Spotify between you and those fans?
