Could someone throw up a pie chart showing exactly how much of your $10 actually goes to an artist? I'm guessing you're going to need to make it pretty large for it to be even visible.

Good on them.

A friend of mine with a record deal is getting more from a single album sale than he gets from 50K listens on spotify.
