This is an important point and fact that needs to be looked into more. If she only received $167 for her portion of Sweden's 1 million plays, the article is way off. OR does Sweden;s STIM cut the check for the aggregate plays for all nation's since that's spotify's home base?
- DrJokepu 17y agoWell I'd looked it up and apparently international royalty payments for performing rights are collected by the collection society of the composer's home country. So if you reside in the UK and someone listens to your music in Sweden, ultimately you will get your cheque from PRS UK. As far as I know Stefani Germanotta (known as Lady GaGa) resides in the United States which means she must be a member of ASCAP, so I don't really understand how could she get a cheque from STIM at all.
