So how does music copyright get paid?

First of all, we need to clarify the scope of music copyright, generally speaking, the songs and lyrics of a song are copyrighted. It mainly includes the right of publication, the right of authorship, the right of modification, the right to protect the integrity of the work, the right of reproduction, the right of distribution, the right of rental, the right of exhibition, the right of performance, the right of broadcasting, the right of projection, the right of information network dissemination, the right of filming, the right of adaptation, the right of translation, and the right of compilation.

Once we've figured out the scope of music copyrights, we can look at how those rights are monetized.

The most direct is to license to the music platform and monetize it through the charging model of the music platform. The second is investment in music copyright

The investment in music copyright is to give money to professional jobs in the industry, which work for you, account for the share of song copyright, and so on, and the copyright generates royalties for income.
