The members of the Verve are probably doing OK..
Well, sure. Bittersweet Symphony wasn't the only great song they made. Urban Hymns sold ten million albums -- and deservedly so, as it is an absolutely fantastic album -- and I imagine that was enough to steer them clear of the local unemployment services office.
But that doesn't make it any less of a screw job. Bittersweet Symphony was an absolute cash cow for the slimy bag of shite Allen Klein. Not just the royalties -- which were substantial -- but advertising revenue, revenue from placement in movies, etc.
Basically, Ashcroft would have Oasis-type money if he hadn't gotten the Dick Sandwich on Bittersweet Symphony.

No doubt, just saying there are tons of artists that never received a red cent for their music...
