The regulation aligned with the widespread piracy of musical works in Indonesia, place copyright owners into not getting a fair share of royalties. But the rule does not address the issue of royalties in the digital realm, such as YouTube. The digital realm is the root of the problem where the Indonesian music industry cannot develop well. This study uses a phenomenological approach and critical approach. Phenomenology as a research approach seeks to describe the phenomenon's essence by exploring the perspectives of the existing problems. At the same time, the critical approach is used as an evaluation bridge. The results of this study are in the form of critical findings, which are expected to become recommendations for policymakers regarding the arrangement of music royalty regulations in Indonesia in the future.
