to make 0.000000pence a month the artist has to get 4 million plays of thier song....

What you're forgetting is that it's still early days for streaming music services, especially Spotify.
Which is actually being blocked in the US at the moment by Apple, I believe.
Once it's more popular the revenues will go up.

what your forgetting is
that its a minority of people in the world who have computers and access to high speed internet connections...
untill that gap is bridged we need a recording industry... and the millions of people that work in it (not just ridiculously wealthy execs but normal people too) need a job.
if the industry goes tits up, then the facilities to accommodate the industry become damaged, and voila, less access to lots of music...its annoying that the execs are fucking it up...but the old men in suits tend to do that...
and what if your country bans or restricts the internet...they can also restrict the type of music you consume.
just a thought really.
