Could be worse!
I've got 14 million listens over four years on Distrokid, and that just about covered the cost of four years with Distrokid. On their most minimal plan.
Good thing I am also in it for the music.
I know right? I have around 60k total streams in 5 years, and I earned around $300 so far. I use a free distributor (who takes a 15%) cut though. I figured I'm not earning much anyway, so I don't really mind them getting a cut if I get unlimited uploads without a fee.
That sounds alright. I should probably find something similar and stop feeding the machine...
