Stores don't pay a fixed rate per stream. Each store pools its subscription and ad money for the month and divides it by share of streams. What one stream earns depends on:
the store, and the share it pays to rights holders
the listener's country: streams from lower-priced markets earn less than streams from the US, UK, or Western Europe
free or paid: a stream from a paying subscriber is usually worth more than one from a free, ad-supported listener
the month: the pool and the total number of streams change every month
