I know that every time a song gets played on the radio, the people who wrote the song get a little bit of money. Does this apply to satellite radio? What about streaming on Spotify or Apple Music?
Technically yes but the royalties from streaming services comes from paid subscribers and from the radio it comes from ad revenue.

It's less than pennies per play. It's a tiny tiny tiny amount that the streaming services keep trying to make smaller. It's really shit but there also isn't much money in streaming anyway.
Yes, satellite radio pays royalties just like terrestrial radio
