I read an article not too long ago describing the payments made to artists when songs are played via online streaming services like Pandora or Spotify and, as I recall, there was a minuscule payment for each time a song is played using one of those services. Something like a tenth or hundredth of a cent for each play (the actual number was much more specific and not at all rounded.) I would guess that films are tracked and paid in a similar way.
