Yes if the CD is licensed the copyright holder or licensor will get the money (the label or the artist directly)

Normally the DJ gets a once off mix fee to do the album... Sometimes a royality if they are lucky.

Everyone gets paid the same... A standard rate is 16%-18% of the wholesale price which is divided by the number of tracks on the CD... eg.
tracks sells wholesale for 10 bucks
there are 20 tracks on the CD
16%-18% of the 10 bucks gets divided by 20 and goes to all the people that licensed the tracks to the CD.
it's all hardcore.
