I'm not brave enough to use my phone without a case, because I know I'll drop it. Either you're braver than me, richer than me, or you have better grip than me.
50% of the revenue or 50% of the profit? Because if they're paying the artists first and footing the bill for hosting the app out of the other 50%, that's a pretty good deal.
I just dont like cases and take the risk. Phones are nicer looking without.
He didnt specify which would lead me to believe profits. Neither is a good split, he is charging as much as spotify for content he did not create and keeping half.
