Most artists are not responsible for the distribution of their work. I think that is the responsibility of the label. I would check the corporate boards of the streaming services to see which label heads also sit on the boards of the streaming corporations or hold stock in them them.

@BensMusicYT Год назад

Yeah that plays a huge role too

@montanajames9144 4 месяца назад

Damn I never thought about that. Can u elaborate on that. I’m learning.

@shahawndonaldson9674 Год назад

I'll say have fun streaming these artists cuz later on down the line artist are going to remove their music off these streaming sites because it takes so many streams to get paid for their music. Glad I didn't get rid of my physical music collection and I still buy CD's tapes and records 💯💯

@BensMusicYT Год назад

Not sure if CDs are coming back but there will be some alternative with NFTs maybe

@shahawndonaldson9674 Год назад

@@BensMusicYT I wouldn't say that CD's are coming back because they never left,they probably won't be selling like they used to but are still around. I still buy CD's right now today, streaming is just an easier way to get music and for some people they don't have to pay for it (music) really,just download what you want to hear and that's it.

@DMX-du9mn Год назад

@@shahawndonaldson9674 Very true - cd is best, download cool, streaming convenient sh*t 👌

@zuck9090 Год назад

Thats not what will happen. What will happen is mainstream artists (seen favorably by record companies) will completely take over, and underground artists will get pushed out. Music that wouldve existed in a different time period with a different kind or music economy will no longer be made at all.

@islandgirl024 2 месяца назад

Imagine getting just $0.99 per sale for one song sounds a lot better than streaming

Each platform pay buy how much people are on their service am assuming... To explain.. Hypothetically speaking let's say.. RU-vid has a following of 1000 Spotify has 100 Now let's say.. RU-vid pays 1 for every 100 streams Spotify pays 1 for every 10 If an artist get's 1000 on RU-vid they get $10 and if they get 100 on Spotify they also get $10, so it's all about how much people uses each platform and how they try to balance out the payment. Sites with more people on it will most likely pay less (Or at a lower rate) as to create balance.

@BensMusicYT 2 года назад

Thats probably a big part too and the reason why Spotify pays that poorly…

@Bobzekat21 2 года назад

I think that Spotify should drop the number down by 100 steams to 215 which is still a lot but it is a start. 315 stream is way to unreasonable.

@BensMusicYT 2 года назад

Would make it way easier yeah

@danielwofford275 Год назад

Also, we need to taken in & factor that just because there’s all these deals like brands, advertisements, etc. potentially available to artist doesn’t mean that that’s what they’ll choose to further their career. Just because it’s available doesn’t mean it’s exactly the best option for an artist.

@nothinsmith9977 Год назад

The amount paid out is per platform is in direct correlation to the amount of people they have listening so Spotify is bigger and gets 100 times the people listening to your song you are still making more off of Spotify in total. No song is going to get 100 million listens on napster sorry and if it does it would have billions on Spotify.

@BensMusicYT Год назад

Yes that’s very true

@bellini6507 11 месяцев назад

I think that if all artist moved strictky to Napster and all of their listeners did the same, then Napster would might have to raise the number of streams an artist need to make a dollar.

@BensMusicYT 11 месяцев назад

Yup completely true

@allenellsworth5799 9 месяцев назад

It depends how much money you pay for Napster.

@screenapple1660 Год назад

I have question is youtube like streaming piratebay?When I upload musican artist song and I get higher ratings. They might like it. But I when I upload different song or cheap song I get lower ratings. If I don't use music artist song due to copyrighted technology. This forbid me from uploading or use their songs. Do music artists produce for RU-vid by RU-vid have be like chain letter to get pay. Does anyone understand what I'm saying. RU-vid acts like piratebay; stealing millions dollars from hard working music and artists. you are not mr. beast. how is mr beast different from music artist today?!?

This proves labels create this shit.. cause why isnt it one standard way to make stream money..why do different streaming services give dif percentages

@BensMusicYT Год назад

Because streaming services need to calculate how much their charging and how many users they have and that differs

@BensMusicYT Год назад

That’s very true

@matthewng9322 2 года назад

To be fair, Spotify is already paying out huge amounts as royalties and the company is even yet to be profitable. Spotify can’t go around trying to please the world, when they can’t even earn a profit. These artist complaining need to view Spotify as a platform for recognition and an opportunity to market themselves and not depend on it to put food on the table. Without platforms like Spotify these artist would have never been able to get noticed. 2 sides to every story I feel.

MUSIC STREAMING acts as if they own your music with an agreement on what you're paid. I feel anything to do with your music should be negotiated by you, not them dictating their terms. STREAMING SERVICES need you more than you need them. Recall how artists made MONEY before the internet? We still have the option, and sue anyone who duplicates your music. Streamers are like LEGAL bootleggers. 80% should be paid to MUSIC PRODUCERS and ARTISTS. Negotiate with online media like we do PUBLISHING. No media has a right to cut into your livelihood. So let's lay down the laws on your hard work.

@BensMusicYT 10 месяцев назад

Well yeah it’s up to the artists to decide if they want to put their music on the platforms and it does give them the chance to get discovered

@ILLGOOD 10 месяцев назад

The old groups didn't worry about that. And they were discovered by word of mouth and radio. When you're spoiled by today's ferry dust old hard work seems impossible. @@BensMusicYT
