The block reward is actually a subsidy to incentivize miners to mine in the early days of the network, as well as being a structured, predictable source of "new money".

A solo miner or pool gets 25BTC plus transaction fees. some pools, but not all, pass the transaction fees on to the miners in the pool. |
