I am looking to move on from spotify, what music streaming service pays the artists the best while still having a large library.

If you're talking about artists under labels, the real way to support them is go to their shows. They get very few proceeds from music purchases.

Go to a small venue and sneak in. Give them a $20 in their tip jar. Buy their expensive official tee shirt.

If they're big enough to run fans through ticketmaster, they're not going to go hungry if you pirate and just introduce friends to their music.
