Tidal and Spotify royalties


Odd ball question but thought I would post here. I often listen to streaming audio on my system and then switch to my turntable. I occasionally forget to pause or stop the Tidal stream prior to switching Preamp settings to the turntable. Although I understand the royalty for streaming is pennies (or less) to the artist, I wondered if royalties are collected if it is streaming without sound while I’m listening to records.

If Tidal pays that much per song steamed, they have to rely on the average user streaming way less than 24/7. If the average song is 5 minutes, 24/7 would cost Tidsl $110/month in streaming fees. 
Perhaps a handful of people stream 24/7.  I'm sure Tidal would flag them and drop them from their service as that wouldn't be a sustainable business model.

As for how much Spotify pays for each stream, they pay about $0.04 per 10 streams. So, 1000 streams is about $4, while 100,000 streams is $400. Also, to get free Spotify songs at no cost, I would use AudFree Spotify Converter to download favorite songs locally to your computer.
