Billboard :Albums DROP , Katy & Pharrell .. More
Streaming nearly doubles & vinyl continues to gain while albums drop
Quote:
While digital streaming revenue growth continues to offset the decline in digital album and track sales, the music industry still has the same problem it has wrestled with for over a decade: physical music's decline is outpacing digital's growth.
As the industry has evolved from an album-based business model to a track-based one, and now from a download-based model to a streamed subscription model, music industry executives have created measurements for streaming and individual track downloads equivalent to the revenue produced by one album. Since the average blended wholesale cost of a single album produces about $7.50 in wholesale revenue to labels, the industry has created formulas for other configurations and formats to approximate that amount of revenue.
So when looking purely at mid-year digital sales -- digital albums downloads plus digital tracks downloads whereby 10 track sales convert into one track equivalent album (TEA) unit -- the U.S. industry generated digital sales of 113.2 million album units in 2014, a decline of 15.9 million units from the 129 million units tallied in the first half of 2013, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

I think vinyls are gaining momentum because they are kind of seen like collector's items.
I rather have vinyls of my favorite's albums, because they have a sort of charm to them.
Obviously, vinyls sound immensely better than CDs/Spotify quality.

RESUME:
-100 Million VEVO views = $700K, from which 50% goes to the artists and publishers: The publishers usually take 10%, leaving 40% to the artist. It means that out of 100 Million views, the artist makes $280,000
-The artists get paid for each view in their VEVO channel, not only when their videos individually get 100 Million views. The 100M = $700K is just to make a comparison

Wall Street Journal
Quote:
"The old model cheapened the value of music videos," says Vevo President and Chief Executive Rio Caraeff. "We want to restore the premium lustre."
Money is trickling back to the labels: A label whose videos rack up 10 million streams on Vevo could collect around $70,000.
|
100 million views = $700,000 in revenue (effective rate of $7 CPM).
Youtube only pays about $300,000 per 100 million views for its Partner, although most Youtube Partners are not professional as Music Videos or as in high demand. Premium pays.
In order to earns $1 million, you need 143 million VEVO views. And according to VEVO, 50% of ad revenue goes to publishers and artists. Publishers usually take the standard 10%.

So far, this seems to be true: according to Caraeff, advertisers have been willing to pay between $25 and $40 per thousand views (CPM, in advertising parlance) for Vevo-provided videos, compared with average market rates of $3 to $8. Caraeff claimed that artists and publishers will get about 50 percent of all revenues from these ads--a much higher percentage than they earn from recordings. This is why Mariah Carey and U2 were so excited about the launch.

According to Caraeff, Vevo is currently seeing tens of million in revenue, through sponsorships and advertising, with more than 50% of that revenue going back to the labels and artists. Attempting to “restore the luster of video advertising,” Vevo’s advertising rate is comparable to broadcast, with CPMs north of $20.

Basically, but Rihanna would be getting paid around $14,000,000 for them. The rest goes to VEVO, the labels, the publishers and who knows how many other people. However, its still enough money to have a fancy lifestyle for many years to come
