Ex guitarist of Smash Mouth talking about music streams royalties.
greg_camp_music: Folks, this is why we need to support our artists in any way we can, go to a show, buy a tee shirt, buy their vinyl even if you don’t have a record player, buy a sticker, give ‘em a hug if possible! Since we switched from purchasing physical copies of albums to streaming (for free)the people who create the music have suffered the most. Don’t get me wrong, the music “ business” continues to thrive, but they’ve forgotten to take care of their artists. Hug your local Songwriter.
