- Mechanical RoyaltiesMechanical royalties are paid to songwriters and publishers each time a composition is reproduced — including every interactive stream and download.
- Performance RoyaltiesPerformance royalties are paid to songwriters and publishers when a composition is performed publicly — on radio, TV, in venues, or via streaming.
- Content ID RoyaltiesContent ID royalties are paid when your music is used in other people's videos on YouTube — its fingerprinting system finds the use and monetizes it for you.
