This is not true/unfair interpretation.
An artist does not get paid after the first payment from the label from the sale of a CD. If you play the CD on repeat, the artist does not benefit, nor does the label.
/Labels/ get paid for every single listen on Spotify.
There is also Spotify Direct, too, and the artist can directly benefit more than if they went with a label.
- kzrdude 7y agoMaybe pay per play is not fair, payout shouldn't be linearly proportional to number of plays!
- syrrim 7y agohuh? is label revenue unrelated to artist revenue?
- geden 7y agoYou appear to have missed the point. I'm singling out a genre of music where you might only listen to an album a few times. So repeat plays are irrelevant.
