Not as obvious to me: what percent of royalties paid go to the original artists and what percent go
to Big Music companies? Just to be clear, I think a copyright owner should be paid for their
copyright, but I'm curious because for an artist, there is probably a very big bite-back factor here
in that if playing their music is priced out of the market, they lose vital exposure and marketing
and I don't see any BM companies in a financially healthy position (by their own accouts) to step up
and take on the burden of paying for exposure and marketing.
