Reference answer

Spotify's monetization strategy is multi-faceted, primarily revolving around its freemium model. This includes offering a free tier supported by advertisements and a premium subscription service that provides an ad-free experience, offline listening, and higher audio quality. Beyond subscriptions, Spotify could explore additional revenue streams such as exclusive content partnerships, live event ticketing integration, merchandise sales, and potentially leveraging its data for targeted advertising or market insights.
