Unsold £1m album keeps royalties debate open
as part of a campaign for higher online royalties said it was about "keeping the debate in the public eye".
His four-piece band have been releasing albums of 30-second songs since 2015 to highlight the lack of what they call fair royalties. If the album is sold for the asking price, the money will be used to fund a rival streaming platform, Nub Play, which will guarantee to pay artists and songwriters a minimum of 1p per stream.Lee said a lot of people have been to see the album and particularly want to see the price tag, but despite some "serious offers" it had not yet sold for the full amount.
"Spotify has told me artists should see music streaming as just a slice of the pizza, but my issue is where else do you make money from music now," he said.His film about the campaign - Inspired: The 30 Second Song Movie - has just been released on Amazon Prime, and is an "honest debate about the issue", he said.
