As I understand it, Russian royalties are significantly lower than those in the US, so what they're doing is absolutely legal. They collect and submit royalties through the Russian equivalent of ASCAP or BMI, just like they should. The artists do in the end get paid, just way less than they would have if the music had been purchased in the US.
I've been using it for some 6 months or so, with no problems.
