AfilionParticipant
I would set up a Wise account for international transfers.

I can see some other Food Network shows like Chopped, filling cue sheets but not the production company behind all the Bobby Flay shows.
AfilionParticipantYou might not get a sync fee if the company licensing it was under a blanket deal with the library.
AfilionParticipantSo then what. There are libraries that make albums specifically focused on promos in the US. On Numerator I can see half of my promos on Fox News and Business. I can also see tons of other promos for just about every channel. I wonder if BMI accepts Numerator codes for promos, because they definitely do for commercials which are similar if you think about it. I think that’ll be my next step.
AfilionParticipantSame..I’m still waiting on my 20+ promos on FOX Business and News..sigh..lol
AfilionParticipant@RM90 I’m with SOCAN and most of my tracks are with BMI with my publisher. ASCAP pays on all those channels as they are census (all count) and not sample survey.
@Aeonata Thanks so much! Very helpful 🙂March 26, 2023 at 4:27 pm in reply to: Has tunesat became obsolete ? is there somebody flying the plane ? #42172AfilionParticipantFrom my 2 years of experience with trqk compared to Tunesat, one isn’t better than the other. They both miss about the same as one another. Though trqk monitors some channels that tunesat doesn’t and vice versa.
BMAT on it’s own is super expensive and only really worth it if you have a massive catalog or are a big publisher.
So I would say keep your tunesat, but maybe put up your tracks which you think are not getting picked up by tunesat on trqk and see if there is any difference. 🙂
AfilionParticipantIt’s good because they are backed by a larger company but bad because there is so much more competition now to be included on their playlists which they curate often. So even if they added a song of yours to a playlist one month that track might be gone the next if it wasn’t very popular.
AfilionParticipantTunesat doesn’t detect on Netflix or in Japan, Canada or Brazil. I use trqk.io (which uses BMAT) as it detects some of those countries. Tunesat misses A LOT of my placements probably more than 50%.
AfilionParticipantIt’s real and I’ve been with Pretzel since close to the start in 2018. I make high 4 figures with them every year. All the music I have with them is my artist music (Afilion). I have 150 tracks in their player which I own both 100% of the writing and publishing. The only way to get any plays is to be featured on their playlists which are curated. Each play pays between 0.02 and 0.03 which is higher than any other streaming service.
In terms of library music catalogs they represent all APM libraries and Epitome Music library. All other music is by independent artists like myself or small to medium-sized labels.
Basically Pretzel is another streaming service like Spotify, except it’s aimed at people who do live streaming to have as music played in the background. You have to sign a non-exclusive contract with them, for them to clear your music from content ID on Twitch and if you’d like YouTube Content ID also which actually increases play count by a lot.
December 4, 2022 at 6:49 pm in reply to: Library offering 25% sync and 50% direct performance; is this a fair request? #41164AfilionParticipantI have a few tracks with them as do some of my friends. They are a very good library. I say take the deal!
AfilionParticipantM = MIBE
AfilionParticipantYup! I search the channel it was on, the show or the dialogue I heard on Tunesat. Though it usually only shows up a few weeks to months later on Numerator.
AfilionParticipantYes. Most of them are short between 10-15sec and promote an upcoming show within a few days to same day. They repeat anywhere from just once to 30 times.
