So I would assume she paid for a mechanical license for 1400 CDs or downloads (unless there was a publisher involved taking half the mechanicals). Unless she is really special, she will probably have a garage full of CDs for some time to come!
I agree that is a slimy tactic but it is what an awful lot of major artists do these days because it is hard to make money in the music business without royalties. Obviously she should have communicated with the actual writers. So she (or her parents) are either shrewd or ignorant or both.
On the other hand, most writers on JPF don't get any cuts at all........congratulations.
