Is music, songs like real estate property

A very important aspect of the music industry is music publishing.


Music publishing is the art of converting a song or music to money.


For example by
recording it and selling the CDs, vinyls etc
Placing it in a movie soundtrack
Placing it in a TV advert
Radio play
Disco or club play
YouTube play
Cover versions of a song
etc


For example the publisher might take 50% and the rest the artist?


Is it like property renting.


You do not sell the song, you rent it.


And you do not have to pay maintenance fees like on real estate?


But you have to help the artistes to create the music. This is what good publishers migh have done in the past so that we can just press a knob on YouTube and listen to music as it it were drain water and complain when an advertising comes in.


And of course there is the other even simpler way. The Pleiades way. Everything public domain, no patents etc.


One just goes to the sea or maintain, or any paradise and enjoy life.
