There are different royalty streams depending on who is playing/selling the music. A record store, for example, sells the CDs, then pays the label, who pays the artist. iTunes pays the label. There are other places to sell music. Video Games have music. Commercials have music. You should have a contract with anyone who uses or sells your music for profit

Is it better to sign to an independent record label or major?

The answer to this depends on what you are looking for out of a label. Personally I think that an independent record label is the way to go in the modern market. You will have more flexibility as an artist and are likely to stay out of a 360 deal. Major Record labels aren't as wealthy as they used to be so they will squeeze every penny they can out of an artist. Again, it all depends on the type of career you are trying to have. Good luck!
