Isn’t that the highest amount ever paid when compared to radio, cd, etc. I think the difference is that it’s distributed uniformly to all artists as opposed to CDs where Paul and Kate got high percentages but almost all others got zero.
So the percent paid is higher as far as gross in, gross to artists. But the outlier rates are lower because there’s no special contracts.
I guess an equivalent is how much is the total ad revenue for radio vs what’s paid to artists (not labels).
Or the total revenue made from music retailers CS what’s paid to artists.
The novelty with streaming is there aren’t tons of steps and indirections.
