The clue there is 70% goes to labels, not artists - large rightsholders who already have wealth taken a massively disproportionate amount of that, so the artists you listen to get fractions of a penny. They make far more when you buy a CD or go to a concert.
Who the hell still listens to CD's? Lets take a look at how much money they were making when CD's were all the rage:
Oh right, it was declining massively because people were pirating MP3's just like Lemmy users earlier suggested.
Vinyl record sales are outdoing CD's:
Just fyi there's nothing clamping you to Spotify, I've had Spotify since June 2012 and been to plenty of concerts since then
Then listen to smaller artists? The more you listen to them the bigger their share the more money they make...
