If Tidal pays that much per song steamed, they have to rely on the average user streaming way less than 24/7. If the average song is 5 minutes, 24/7 would cost Tidsl $110/month in streaming fees.
Tidal and Spotify royalties
Odd ball question but thought I would post here. I often listen to streaming audio on my system and then switch to my turntable. I occasionally forget to pause or stop the Tidal stream prior to switching Preamp settings to the turntable. Although I understand the royalty for streaming is pennies (or less) to the artist, I wondered if royalties are collected if it is streaming without sound while I’m listening to records.
