I’m confused as it mentions her share in hits such as Go Your Own Way, Dreams and Landslide. I didn’t realise she’d have any financial interests in he songs of other songwriters. I’m guess as a musician she has some rights. IDK!!!!!!

she would have a financial stake in all the recordings the Rumours5 did. There are rights to be owned/sold to those actual recordings.
The songwriters would own/be able to sell the publishing rights of the songs they themselves wrote (ie, control how they could be used for example if they could be recorded by other artists or recorded for commercials etc)
