Who gets the $1 per CD? I assume you mean the artist. Actually it's based on a point system that is negotiated in their contracts. Each party involved gets a certain amount of points (100 points per CD sale). I don't know the averages but I do know the points the artists get varies widely from band to band. And if the artist is also a producer or has a stake in the distributing or record label, he/she get's a bigger piece of the pie too.
