DSP songwriter/publishing royalties.

How is it that downloads of songs from DSPs are not subject to the full mechanical rate and only pay out to publishers and songwriters at a fractional rate? How did this happen and where is the lgal justification for this? Also, how is it that the royalty rate for actual recordings/ the master are greater with regard to DSPs?
