    Hey guys, great episode. Ryan knows me from earlier since I used to work with Broke (The Nations). Just wanted to clarify one thing; at 10:04 it’s mentioned the Copyright board decides the royalty rate per stream, but in the royalty statements we receive from our distributors we can see that the royalty rate differs exponentially depending on the origin country of the stream and even the DSP (spotify has different royalty rates per stream compared to apple etc). For example, Iceland pays out the highest while Nepal is the lowest, with different pay rates across different platforms. Does the copyright board determine the rate that they pay out to the DSPs, who then in turn apply the rate per country and hand it out to the distributors? And would that mean that each country has their own copyright board which decides this in accordance with each DSP? Thanks for any clarifications!

      This is a great question. I should've asked. These things have a tendency to be very US-oriented unfortunately.
