Hi all! Just wanted to see how everyone else made out this BMI payout. Mine was down about 5%, so overall not bad. Do you find the 4th quarter to be slower than others? There’s probably no rhyme or reason, I would guess. Hope everyone else had a great check!
Best payout for me so far. June is usually very good month for me.
Mine is about the same as last qtr but down a bit from the qtr before that.
just got my 1st ever statement,$309!Not much but it’s a start,a few placements in reality tv shows.Does anyone know how/when do non US citizens get paid?

$309 for your first statement? That is awesome! My first statement paid less than two dollars.

No I do not. I am with ASCAP. But you have done well for yourself for your first check. Good stuff!
BTW,do you know what is the “PERF COUNT”
It would imply every time the show airs and your cue “performed”. Of course you would have to assume the count was accurate. Then again there is a chance it might not be!
got it,thanks!it goes from 1 up to 1 million counts,i guess the later is for internet views/hits.
it goes from 1 up to 1 million counts
The only big numbers I have in that column are from Hulu. Maybe it has to do with streams. In other words every time a show is run to a user it’s counted as an individual stream. Funny though that Netflix isn’t counted that way.
correct,i see the Hulu name there.
After an unexpectedly amazing quarter last statement, I took a dip this quarter. I’m ok with it though, 4th quarter is usually my slowest quarter and I’m still on track.
Quick question regarding statements.
I have a couple of tracks in 1 library that are getting used, but my statements and payment come from the library, I have no statements in BMI. I only have the writers share so I’ve left it up to the library to register the works. Is this a normal process?
All the work I’ve done so far has basically been a buyout with me keeping the writers, so I actually don’t have any registered works in my BMI account
Cheers for any pointers,
JD
