Eminem wins between 40 and 50 million in lawsuit against Universal

I was amazed how eminem won the fight against the industry, when i saw the paper today.
The evil ones' argument was, that it has costs to sell music over internet. However the costs were not even close to the costs when selling cd's. Now eminem gets 50% of the sold music in internet platforms. This smooth move is maybe the start of loads of court sessions.
What do the studios do for the artists, that they took like +70% of the income of the music of someone else? This should be the start for music artists to show them bureaucratic devils, that not they should earn the money but the artists themselves. Fuck helping japan and haiti, it's time to get these things sorted out. It can't be that the poor rappers work hard for their money and a ceo that doesn't understand a fuck about music gets the money.

TL;DR: I have no clue..
