Your distributor only pays a small portion of your music royalties! That means you are responsible for capturing the rest.

I watched this just because I was curious how my favorite artists get paid when I buy or listen to their music. After hearing all of this, I hope they are getting all the money they should be getting.

Hey I got a question pls I’m a music producer. An artist used my beat without purchasing it and uploaded it to major streaming platforms. Do I have the right to claim 100% on SoundExchange as the rights owner?

Thanks 4 what you do. You're knowledgeable, more importantly you're smart. This is an unusual request & it all comes with one big smile of understanding I hope :) - Question: I've chose CD baby, BMI and will self-publish. The amount of info you put out there is kind of overwhelming. -----------Now seriously, I don't need to get every last cent of money I can get out of every last opportunity to make money, so what other companies do I Have to Have to get say..... 80 or 90% of monies? I've chosen 3 crucial things above. Are there any other crucial things. Is Sound Exchange crucial? It's not likely to cost me 30% of my eventual profits if I don't go with them I assume. Thanks. :)

I have a pretty precise question. I am a music artist and I am registered with SongTrust, SoundExchange and I get my money from the distributor as well. Let's say I want to give my producer 5% on the master and 50% on publishing. Where exactly should I claim what? Should I just claim my 95% in the distributor and SoundExchange and 50% in SongTrust?

Does anybody have a discount code that I can use to distribute my music with CD baby? I've looked in every video description and can't find any codes that I could use? If it's visual on the screen can somebody please give me the actual text of the code that I can use? I can't see anything on the screen because I'm totally blind. I'm looking for a better distributor

@ayoowets Ай бұрын

question for you, I have a music video that is unmonetized due to it being an new channel. The video has amassed about 180k. I use DistroKid but I do not used DistroVid and used no distribution to drop the video. The song itself is licensed thru Distro kid and is on all platforms including KZfaq music. Is there a (correct) way to submit this to someone/something to collectors royalties from the music video or am I SOL?

If I register with my collection society in my home country and then register my music with Song trust will they become a confusion when one of these companies tries to pay me as the other one will be claiming it?

@IndieMusicAcademy 7 ай бұрын

For your home country's PRO, you'll notify SongTrust if you have a prior registration and they will utilize your existing account so that collections aren't being grabbed twice.

And would I do this through email? Or do they have a specific service where I can contact them for this specific topic?

@IndieMusicAcademy 7 ай бұрын

SoundExchange does have some reciprocation agreements with other collection societies, but they do not collect directly, so it's up to the foreign society to notify and pay.

I feel like this is all so highly unnecessarily complicated to deter the independent artist, everytime I think I have all the bases covered a mild breeze shows about 40 more, I just want to share my gift with the world, would it be ludicrous and wholly foolish of me to simply copyright my music and skip all this distribution and royalty business???
