You only get royalties for the records sold or radioplays/streams. I don't think that Bon Jovi albums sell much anymore and even Crush that sold pretty good in 2000 won't sell now. And I can't see those post-2000 songs getting too much airplay either apart from Who Says, which Billy didn't write.

So, the royalties aren't exactly rolling in...
