Distribution Spotlight

VOD Final Distributions, Online Background, and Online Advertising

The online area includes final distributions from a number of SVOD services (subscription-based video-on-demand services), such as TV 2 Play, Netflix, Viaplay, and HBO. The amounts being finally distributed primarily relate to royalty payments for customizable TV packages offered by TV distributors, where users can choose between different VOD services. These distributions mainly cover 2025, although for TV2 Play the final distribution relates to 2024.

The distribution also includes Online Background 2025. This area covers the use of music on websites, apps, and similar digital platforms where it has not been possible to link the music directly to reported usage data. The area is divided into two pools: an audio pool, which is distributed based on data from the music streaming service Nuuday Music, and an audiovisual (AV) pool, which is distributed based on data from the Interactive TV Services area. The AV pool also includes the remaining primary amounts from Interactive TV Services for 2025, which are therefore finally distributed through this pool.

In addition, the distribution includes royalties for music used in online advertising during 2025. This part of the distribution is based on data received from an external provider that monitors advertising on major ad-supported digital video platforms.

Final Distributions for Television

Final distributions for 2025 are also being carried out within the television area for a number of TV channels, including TV3, TV3 Puls, Kanal 4, Kanal 5, 6'eren, Canal 9, Eurosport 2, and SEE.

How much will I get paid?

The royalty payment we send to you for the use of your music is based on several factors, depending on where the music is used. For example, on TV and radio, we talk about minute values, whereas streaming is based on the number of streams. Concerts are paid out based on the number of attendees and, among other things, ticket prices if any.
