1793 streams = approx. $1
iTunes:

But still..
those streams can go for ages and ages. How it will be in a LONG run. After 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? I personally favor the idea of whatever I listen I will give a fragment of a penny to what I'm listening to. Instead of buying an album and after the first spin letting it dust in my collection. In a long run, if the album/song is good I have paid the amount of money I'd have paid for buying the album. I really hope that Spotify could continue getting more paying customers. And more commercials for those not paying for it. That way, I assume, Spotify is able to pay more per stream.
