Hi great video 💯. I'm going to copyright 10 songs. Just wondering how long I should wait before releasing my album through TuneCore? I'd like to register with ASCAP but with my budget I'd have to do that at a later time. I'm the author of the sound recording and composition & lyrics, etc Any insight would be appreciated. Thank you!

I sent a message to ASCAP a couple weeks ago and I still haven't received a response. Perhaps you can provide an answer. I want to publish a work that I didn't write, but I don't know how to get a hold of the copyright owner. I know his name and where he lived over 20 years ago. I found a couple of email addresses, but they're no good. So I mentioned all this in my message to ASCAP and, since this guy was (is?) a professional musician with publishing credits, I asked if they would contact him and tell him I want to publish one of his tunes. He's got to be a member of either ASCAP or BMI and I'm figuring even if he might be a member of BMI, ASCAP should still have a way to contact him.

As a longtime beatmaker and award winning the only thing I would add is I submitted 100 + beats to Sony TV for a TV Show and many were used, I did need to register those beats with BMI or ASCAP to get paid publishing that I still receive. Beatmakers don't need to publish their beats unless they will be used in this type of way as a song beat.

Quick question... if I am registering some songs on BMI with a co-writer (we are dividing our songs equally for music & lyrics), should I put 100% for myself and 100% for my co-writer? Also we do not have a publisher, so this obviously still adds up to the 200%. I just want to make sure I am doing this correctly? Again, much appreciation for your insights and all the great videos!

Can we just give an approximate month and day? Second, in the Artists and Recording section, when the form asks for "are then any artists?", would this be any one performing on the record, or is it only other artists who might share rights?

Thank you for this! I still have a question after watching this video & your video about registering as a publisher - if I am a BMI writer & I have my own publishing imprint via BMI - I'm confused about setting the right % if there are multiple composers involved. If I want the writer's splits to match the publishing royalties, does this mean my publishing company still collects 100% or I also split up that 100% to match the Writer's splits? This is hard to describe! Not sure if it's making sense...

I registered a song on BMI and then the artist that recorded the song uploaded it to Spotify, but I saw that he typed my name incorrectly on Song credits. Would that affect me getting the royalties?

@SheenaT84 Жыл бұрын

As long as you've submitted your registration correctly under your BMI account and it's linked to the correct artist, you're good. They don't use Spotify writer info to confirm shares. 👍 I believe the artist can still correct your name spelling through their Spotify account, though.

I should register the music in BMI (or equivalent), or I should not register it, since I am interested in whether it is ROYALTY FREE. On the other hand, should I register all of them in BMI and better license them to buyers so they can then monetize through a Content ID dispute on KZfaq?

Regarding your comment about how to register a 15-song album, it's worth noting that the Copyright Office looks at things differently, and you should mention this. The Copyright Office has a form you will fill out for a group of works, but it is limited to only 10 works. So, if you want to register a 15-song album with the US Copyright Office; you have to fill out TWO forms and then pay TWO submission payments. It is for this reason that all of my albums now contain 10 songs or fewer. I don't have a big copyright budget to deal with this. It can quickly add up if I want to have albums with more than 10 songs. Also, you mention only how BMI does things. I'm a member of ASCAP. It would have been nice to see from you how ASCAP handles things.

We are thoroughly confused with all the places to sign up and what they each do. You talk in #6 about putting 200% into a box on BMI's form. How is this different from what Tunecore Publishing Administration does? Are you saying that all they are doing is collecting that extra 100%? Or do they collect something else? On another video, you talk about Sound Exchange, too, which seems to be different from what Tunecore collects, too. We are signed up to release on Tunecore for streaming. We have copyrights (though with a slightly different name than what we registered with BMI). So, also have questions about how to add alias' to BMI after making initial application? Sorry, it's a lot, but that's why we are overwhelmed! Thanks for your help. The song writing and recording are the easy part! LOL.
