Revenue sharing in the music industry refers to the distribution of income generated from music sales, streaming, licensing, and other sources among stakeholders such as artists, record labels, publishers, and platforms. This business model ensures all parties involved in creating, distributing, or promoting music receive compensation based on predetermined agreements. Modern examples include streaming platforms like Spotify sharing revenue with artists based on stream counts, and social media platforms like Facebook sharing ad revenue with music rights holders when their content is used in user-generated videos.
