Open dataset

Who Actually Collects Your Music Royalties

Every cell is sourced to the named organisation's OWN published documentation — its help centre, pricing page, or official newsroom. No blog, review site or comparison article was used as the source for any cell; secondary sources were used only to locate candidate primary URLs. A cell with no primary source ships as UNKNOWN rather than inferred from a competitor's behaviour or from what the company appears to imply.

Limits

  • Coverage changes. Companies add and remove services, and a stale cell here costs a reader money, so every cell carries the date it was read.
  • UNKNOWN means we could not source it, NOT that the answer is no. Several UNKNOWN cells are probably 'no', but this dataset does not guess.
  • Plan tiers change names and prices. Where a company has renamed or retired a tier, that is recorded as a trap rather than silently updated.
  • This dataset covers what an organisation COLLECTS. It does not rate them, rank them, or recommend one.
