Well lets say its as little as $0.05 per hit (5 cents).

On behalf of Britain I'd like to apologise for Pete Waterman.

5 cents US isn't a fraction of a UK penny. Don't forget that everyone else in the record chain gets a cut of it too.

First time I've heard of YouTube paying royalties......

Sure it is and everyone else who?

Case makers and CD suppliers dont get anything. Retailers dont get anything. The money goes direct to the people who own the rights to the music so Rick would get a fair share of that.

this along with all the other ignorant repsonses to copyright make wonder what kind of people are in this biz.

Copyright in the US at least, is 95 years after publication or 120 years after creation( whichever is sooner ) or 70 years after the death of the creator. If he wrote the song while being paid by the record company it's 95 years if he wrote it on his own then it's 70 years after he croaks. Assuming he wrote it in 1986 under teh employment of his label the copyright runs out in 2081. Of course in about 10-12 years Disney will bribe congress to extend copyright again. God forbid somone in 2022 uses Steamboat Willey without paying Disney. Basically only things made before 1923 are free from copyright.
