These days, people don’t tend to buy music the way that they used to; it’s all about streaming. So, whether Spotify, Tidal, or perhaps Apple Music are used, whatever fans are listening to on their tech gadgets contributes to the streaming numbers, and after the deductions are made by the streaming giant, the label and the artist take their cut.

Considering that her music has been streamed over 17 BILLION times on Spotify alone, Miley would be earning plenty of money here, too.
