>The way royalties get assigned is based on a percentage of your listening versus your monthly payment. For example, spend an entire month listening to Taylor Swift’s new album, she gets the entire royalty share. But if you listen to the album 100 times but then listen to lofi beats 900 times, Taylor only gets 10%. Not sure about Tidal, but that’s not how it works on Spotify. Instead, artists get paid per stream — about 0.003$. Anything from you the pool of your monthly payment allocated for royalties that you did not use gets distributed proportionally between the artists with the most streams. So say: - I pay 10$ a month
- 5$ of that is reserved for royalties
- I listen to 330 songs a month (~ 1$)
- 4$ remain in the pot and are paid to the most popular artists |
