Quiz: how much money has Stairway to Heaven made in royalty payments?
It's the honor system. Make your guess and then check out the number from this article about the Taurus lawsuit: http://money.cnn.com/2016/06/15/medi...ial/index.html

Spoiler!

The reason why it's not ignorant is that BMI, SESAC, ASCAP, PRS, etc. are all non-profit organizations. Sure, their employees are well paid, as is their CEO.

The streaming companies only payout approximately 20% of their revenues, whereas the PRO's here and abroad payout over 97% of money collected.

Big difference.

Before I make a lowball offer I got a buddy to tell me what Stairway to Heaven is actually worth but I'm going well under market value anyways.

What makes you buy albums? Just curious because since Spotify i don't buy anything other than the subscription fee.

I'm probably behind on technology, but when I go running I don't really want to take my large phone. So I have an ipod, and I buy songs (and a very occasional album) on itunes. I hear good things about Spotify, but I don't know how to get songs from there onto my ipod (or something similarly small).

I purchase the 256kbs Mp3 albums from Amazon of artists and albums that I like.

They end up on my iPhone, on a USB stick in my car and I import them into music projects as comps when mixing.

Plus, I feel somewhat obligated to purchase music I enjoy, especially when the albums are $6.99, $7.99 and $8.99.

They are fully Apple compliant. They have a promotion where you can do 3 months for $.99/month.

Oh i feel you on being industry loyal. I have Prime but haven't ventured into amazon music simply because I'm already used to spotify. I get it for $6/month through sprint. Too, I'd venture to say you may be just a bit more of a music aficionado than I.
Do you SoundHound?

Hmm. I'll look into that. But I need to get my songs offline since I don't run with anything that has access. How does that work?

Same as itunes. You download them. Song, album, Playlist, whatever. I'm no shill for them nor am i an expert, Dane would know more. My individual experience has been satisfying and cost effective.

Do you SoundHound?
Nope, no SoundHound.

This may or may not be surprising but after working on music 8 hours a day or more, I prefer silence when driving, hiking or biking. I resisted Spotify for a long time due to their low royalty payments but I have to admit, I really enjoy it from time to time.

The most exciting aspect is reading books about how old records and hit songs from the 50's, 60's and 70's were made, then listening to them in my studio with critical ears towards the recording an production. I also enjoy listening to the old jazzers like Tal Farlow, Barney Kessell, Herb Ellis, Howard Roberts and Kenny Burrell.

Completely understandable on getting away from work. Ilike soundhound because I can be anywhere, hear a song ilike, identify and store to load to spotify later.
Cool on the history. Jazz is something to which I've not been overly expulsion exposed though I'm big into Blues.
Did you view Vinyl?

It doesn't, as it's an Internet service. You need to be connected.
