Interesting. That’s dated October of 2009 and says Spotify had 5m users. Looks like they have ~200m users today. At a linear scaling it’d be twenty times larger, or £120m=$154m per month. That’s $1.85b/year.
In reality it wouldn’t scale linearly, but it also accounts for zero salaries, which was the major component of my comment.
Here’s a good estimate on their hosting, streaming and licensing costs

They tack it down to about 6 million a month that is of course excluding lawyers and other salaries.
