I always assumed cover bands and the idol shows had to pay
royalties to the owners of the music.

The cover bands tend not to pay royalties, but the venues they play in
do, and when surveyed some of that money would go to the band being
covered, not the cover band.

Idol shows and television has to have licenses to play music, licensing
occurs a few ways in audiovisual material.
