Views x $0.007 = payment from VEVO according to the Wall Street Journal.
Using On the Floor as an example, 445,578,517 views x $0.007 = $3.119 mil USD check from VEVO to artist/label/publisher. It's reasonable to assume that this song earns more from VEVO than Itunes.
Probably viewable only from those in USA, Canada and UK. VEVO is launching in at least 6 more countries in 2012 (according to its CEO). VEVO aims is to be a GLOBAL PREMIUM MUSIC VIDEOS SITE, so it's a given they will be in more countries.
Well, that's the issue. There is no beauty in that video. So where do all the views come from?
Beauty is subjective. Isn't Angelina Jolie considered one of the most beautiful women besides having the skin like someone that is 20 years older than her, Madonna?
