This way the whole band gets equal royalties as opposed to (let's say) the singer getting the vast majority and the others not getting much at all. I know, for example, that this is the case for some of Pearl Jam's material.

If that's the case, does someone who preforms someone else's songs (britney spears) get any money from them? Or just from album sales?

Buddy, you've had nearly 7 years... how much time do you need? Even if you saved up 1 penny per day you would have had enough to but the CD by now... :lol:
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
