I want to know the answer to the following question:
What happens if a royalty is paid to the copyright owner or representative?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Compulsory licensing laws generally say that for certain uses of certain works, no infringement occurs as long as a royalty, at a rate determined by law rather than private negotiation, is paid to the copyright owner or representative copyright collective.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
