According to information from the site, ONErpm charges no upfront fees and gives 85% of sales to artists and labels in a nonexclusive deal,[3] so the rights of artists are preserved and they also have an option to distribute content using Creative Commons licenses. In 2013, OneRPM began offering a free package that includes distribution to Rdio, Grooveshark and YouTube in which artists can now receive revenue generated from advertising on the video platform.[4]
