Apple Music Will Pay Artists More for Higher Quality Audio
Apple Music will give higher royalty payments to music released on the streaming service in Spatial Audio, the company announced on Monday.
The company said that the change will begin starting with January’s month-end royalty payments, and that songs that are available in Spatial Audio will now receive up to a 10 percent higher payout rate than other tracks. “This change is not only meant to reward higher quality content, but also to ensure that artists are being compensated for the time and investment they put into mixing in Spatial,” the announcement said. At launch, Apple had billed the new audio experience a revolution in music listening and a similar sort of leap that happened when stereo replaced mono as the standard format.
