It's just insane to me that it even takes 1500 people to run Spotify to begin with

Techwise it probably doesn't, but then there's marketeers, sales, accountants, legal, etc...

Why not? Some companies do have a fraction of Spotify users and have around 100 software engineers. Things do not run by themselves. Also they are in many countries so you need to keep up with legal changes...

I can see the need for those engineers but more importantly, Spotify needs sales people.
