I included the other numbers to show that they get prices for normal sales even better than many book authors will see, but on an all-you-can-eat plan they get four cents per album. Of course, it is more likely that music listeners will play the same album multiple times. But to get the six euro equivalent, the entire album would need to be played 150 times on Spotify by the same person.

hmmmm, that's interesting. I can see some people doing well with this model although it seems rather small at first.
Just yesterday I listened to the same song 12 times in loop. There's the all you can eat album fee right there. There are books I've read more than 12 times in a single year. I typically will re-read a book directly after finishing it.
But, this system will not work for me... I like to own, not rent.
