With that type of publisher, royalties from music is not how they earn money.

They earn money by charging songwriters/artists, etc. Songwriters and artists, not the general public, are their profit center.

Now then, a lot of studios charge for recording, etc., but they don't try and lock you into some kind of publishing contract so they are a legit service.

I'd avoid them.
