episode 3: Part 2 - Discussing How Music Streaming Works and Artist in the Spotlight
Welcome to Part 2 of the Music streaming. This is such a HOT topic right now with the UK Government looking at this area closely, with labels, artists, and distributors to provide a fairer landscape for the indies. The adoption of music streaming is by far the most significant change in the industry in the last ten years. Streaming services are looking for ways to expand their customer base, develop their product, grow revenues, and find a sustainable long-term business model. In episode 2 we look at the following areas plus much more;
Mechanical royalties. They are paid to the songwriters for the right to reproduce the recording every time the user chooses to play a song. That means that non-interactive plays on DSP, like ad-supported radio-stream like Pandora, for example, does not generate that type of royalty.
Performance royalties. These are paid to the songwriters for the right to publicly perform their music. Since the streaming distribution model implies that the consumer does not own any of the songs, every stream is rendered as a streaming service publicly performing a song to the user even if it is enjoyed in the privacy of one’s headphones.
What is the Pay-out to sound recording owners? The pay-outs to master owners make up the primary share of the overall per-stream pay-out. It is paid to the owners of the recording copyright — whether it is a label, distributor, or artists themselves.
