Recording artists want to have digital revenue treated as licensing revenue instead of royalty income. The latter is typically paid out at the artist's royalty rate and subject to the various recoupments associated with a record deal. However, most artist deals have provisions that have a 50/50 split on licensing revenue. This type of revenue may not even be subject to recoupment. The Artist's case is based on the fact that labels "license" their content to services like iTunes. But this is really just semantics. Still, the distinction has real fiscal impact to both labels and artists alike. This is why I am very interested to see how the issue of internet income is resolved in both the WGA strike and with simulataneous releases such as "The Bourne Ultimatum." there is a parallel in the music biz.
