Petition to raise artist streaming royalties

Hello Guys and Gals, Friends and Fans, I hope you will support this effort!

There is a petition circulating which hopes to bring some awareness to the exploitation that musicians suffer at the hands of the current streaming industry payment model.

I don't want to go on a rant here about how demoralizing the numbers below are, so I will just let you look at the numbers and decide for yourself whether you think artists deserve more for their creations.
 

Current streaming payment models for some popular services.
Spotify pays: 0.004 per play
Tidal pays: $0.012 per play ( if they can do it, why can't everyone? )
Apple Music: $0.007 per play
YouTube: $0.00069 per view

“If” an artist gets 1 million views the payouts will be:

Spotify: $4,000 / 1 Million streams
Tidal: $12,000 / 1 Million streams
Apple Music: $7,000/ 1 Million streams
YouTube: $690/ 1 Million Stream.

If you support standing with artists to protest against the current payment model, please click here, sign and share the petition!

Thank you!
