Who should I pay?

What about streaming?

Playing music through Youtube, Google Play, Napster or streaming services such as Spotify or Deezer is not allowed for commercial use.

Both if you play music permanently or host a one-time event, you have to pay. So, unfortunately, no distinction is made here.

The payment of this fee actually refers to the so-called "copyright." So these organizations ensure that these artists get the pay they worked for.
