I'm sorry, that's the correct number. Each streaming company has a different agreement but Spotify pays 1/10,000th of a cent. They claim that they pay an average of .0007 cents but that figure is extremely rare.
James Blunt claims that he's paid 0.0004499368 per stream. There are artists that have had millions of streams, only to be paid less than $20.00 dollars.
I had a statement in which I was paid $16.35 for 59,990 streams via Netflix. That's .0002 cents, which is higher than Spotify, proving that all streaming sources aren't paid evenly.
It's a mess.
