Spotify Unveils New Royalty Payout Model to Support Working Artists

Spotify has introduced changes to its royalty payout model to ensure more money goes to working artists. These changes, effective from early 2024, include a minimum threshold of annual streams before tracks can generate royalties, penalties for fraudulent activity, and a minimum play-time length for non-music noise tracks to generate royalties. The goal is to demonetize tracks earning less than five cents per month. With over 100,000 new tracks uploaded daily, micro-payments quickly add up. The money saved will be redistributed to artists with more popular tracks. Spotify also plans to crack down on fraud and discourage non-music noise content that abuses the system. The company aims to move $1 billion in royalty payments to legitimate artists and rights holders.

Spotify, the world's leading music streaming platform, has announced a new royalty payout model that aims to ensure that more money goes to working artists. The new model, which will take effect in early 2024, includes three key changes:

Minimum threshold of annual streams: Tracks must have a minimum of 1000 annual streams before they can generate royalties. This is designed to demonetize tracks that are not being listened to very often, which can lead to micro-payments that add up quickly.

Penalties for fraudulent activity: Spotify will penalize artists who engage in fraudulent activity, such as stream manipulation. This is to protect the integrity of the streaming platform and ensure that artists are being paid fairly.

Minimum play-time length for non-music noise tracks: Non-music noise tracks, such as white noise and nature sounds, must have a minimum play-time length of 30 seconds before they can generate royalties. This is to discourage the uploading of short noise tracks that are designed to exploit the royalty system.

Spotify estimates that the new royalty payout model will move $1 billion in royalty payments to legitimate artists and rights holders over the next five years. The company is committed to supporting working artists and ensuring that they are fairly compensated for their music.

How the New Royalty Payout Model Works

The new royalty payout model is based on a system called Streamshare. Under Streamshare, all subscription revenue is pooled together and then distributed to artists and rights holders based on the number of streams their music receives. The more streams an artist has, the more money they earn.

Under the new model, tracks must have a minimum of 1000 annual streams before they can start generating royalties. This is designed to demonetize tracks that are not being listened to very often, which can lead to micro-payments that add up quickly.

Spotify is also taking steps to crack down on fraudulent activity, such as stream manipulation. Artists who are caught engaging in fraudulent activity will be penalized, which could include having their royalties withheld or their accounts terminated.

Finally, the new model also includes a minimum play-time length requirement for non-music noise tracks. Non-music noise tracks, such as white noise and nature sounds, must have a minimum play-time length of 30 seconds before they can generate royalties. This is designed to discourage the uploading of short noise tracks that are designed to exploit the royalty system.

What This Means for Artists

The new royalty payout model is good news for working artists. By demonetizing tracks that are not being listened to very often and cracking down on fraudulent activity, Spotify is freeing up more money to distribute to artists and rights holders.

Artists who have a significant following can expect to see an increase in their royalties under the new model. However, artists with smaller followings may see a decrease in their royalties if their tracks do not meet the minimum threshold of annual streams.

Overall, the new royalty payout model is a positive step towards ensuring that working artists are fairly compensated for their music. Spotify is committed to supporting working artists and ensuring that they have the resources they need to succeed.
