Last.fm is now delivering streaming royalties to artists not affiliated with a label or collecting society, according to details shared Wednesday. The music-focused social networking destination, owned by CBS Corporation, is now inviting artists to register to receive royalties from their online streaming activity.
The Artist Royalty Program is allocating per-stream payouts on par with signed and society-affiliated artists, according to the company. "This is a big day for independent artists," heralded Last.fm cofounder Martin Stiksel. "The young musician making music in a bedroom studio has the same chance as the latest major label signing to use Last.fm to build an audience and get rewarded."
Artists are being encouraged to register at last.fm/uploadmusic.
