Musicians make money off royalties primarily through the use of their recorded music, which can be played on various platforms such as radio, streaming services, and in movies or commercials. Each time a song is played or sold, the songwriter and performer earn a percentage of the revenue generated, which is collected and distributed by performing rights organizations. Additionally, mechanical royalties are earned from physical sales and digital downloads. Overall, royalties provide a continuous stream of income as long as the music remains in circulation.

How much money did i will always love you make for dolly?

The song? It was Whitney Houston. I Will Always Love You was a #1 hit twice for Dolly Parton long before Whitney's version. More importantly, Dolly wrote the song so she has received royalties from every copy ever sold. Royalties for songwriters are much higher than for the performer so in essence she made millions off the song---far more than Whitney did.
