I haven't used this product so perhaps I am misunderstanding the article. It seems to confuse sales royalties and streaming fees. Streaming fees are 1 cent for big names and 2/10 cent for small names, is that it? And sales commissions for outright downloaded sales are not specified. But then $1 "per stream" is suddenly brought up in the last sentence without explanation. $1 per track download or sale is somewhat industry standard, with iTunes' 99 cent tracks. But $1 per stream or single listening is not normal at all. The two seem to be very different things, downloads and single plays. To me, the article seemed to confuse them.
- dgurney 15y agosorry, the $1 per stream is referring to Concert Window's royalty to artists (the artists get $1 per webcast ticket sold). Then as for Spotify, which is separate, I had originally thought that Spotify paid 1 cent to the artist/record label per stream, but in actuality it's a little under $0.002.

It's a great service for those of us far away from those clubs. (PS once I hit the "download free track" on your webpage, none of the links on the left hand side worked any more.)
