AlanParticipant
I’m not really clear on YouTube copyright blocks, but I thought I read in The Identifyy agreement that they made it “easy” to get those cleared for legitimate licensers.
Regardless, I have no plans to edit all my RF tracks unless I get complaints.
AlanParticipantSorry, Art. I wasn’t clear. When I submitted tracks to RF sights in the past, I always marked NO to “YouTube Content ID Registered.” This was true at the time. I have recently registered everything with Indentifyy. Should I go back and change those to yes?
I noticed some of the videos on my Identifyy report were blocked & I wondered if it was because I registered them with Identityy.
AlanParticipantIdentifyy was my 1st time with Adrev. I realized this week that I have marked all my RF tracks as non-Adrev for the past 10+ years.
Have any of you:
1. Gone back and edited all of your RF tracks to reflect they are noe Adrev?
Or
2. Seen any negative consequences for not doing that?AlanParticipant“ I’ve saw a long string of cue sheets from one show going down half the page in my BMI account. Couldn’t wait to get my statement.I ended up with about a buck fiddy.”
I was neck deep in a frustrating mix when this popped up. Thanks for the much needed laugh ?
AlanParticipantI will 2nd Art. I uploaded a few of my top RF tracks to test it 4 months ago. After seeing what I was missing out on I added most of my catalog.
My best example: one track was used in a dance lesson video with 103K views September. It netted me $293 for that month. The video is 3 years old and has 2.9 million views. I try not to think of the money I didn’t collectAlanParticipantI’ve had some payouts similar to Mark’s from Telemundo. Some $15 to $20 line items and good international royalty payouts.
I had one track used in 42 episodes of “Un Nuevo Dia” (I think it’s a soap opera?). They ranged from 20 seconds to as long as 7+ minutes. The total back end for those placements was $828
I’m with ASCAP
AlanParticipantWow, thanks for sharing that, Art.
AlanParticipantSo true yzzman1! This track does very well for me and will likely be a 5 figure earner in the coming year or two, and was rejected by AJ. One person’s trash is another person’s treasure
AlanParticipantI signed in with Identifyy in July after a decade of avoiding CID “because of all the headaches it creates for micro-pennies.”
I just saw my first month’s report. A YouTube channel used a track of mine in 768 videos with 189K views. Plus a few hundred other videos with smaller view counts.
I had no clue. I wonder how much money I’ve left on the table?AlanParticipantIt was a 30-second spot. I have no clue what the back end will be. I’ll try to remember to report back here what it paid.
AlanParticipantYears later, I’ve still never seen any back end from Yes. I haven’t picked up a lot of placements, maybe 5 or so, but no money.
AlanParticipantFor me it’s a couple of days behind, which I’d common. My most recent was early Sunday am (over 48 hours ago), but I occasionally have empty spells too.
AlanParticipantcould you explain what a “survey payout” is?
I tried to provide links but they were blocked

the winning lottery tickets are here:

AlanParticipantMy payout was $1K more than I would have expected. As predicted above, I had two ASCAP Survey payouts totaling over $1,700. Three 0:28 weekend morning performances on WGN netted $1,300, the other one was about $400. Those probably would have paid about a dollar without the survey hit.
The Survey is great when you get it, but it’s also infuriating when you go years without hitting that very random lottery.
I hope all you ASCAP’rs did well.
Cheers!AlanParticipantMine hit the bank yesterday. It was my second best payout ever so I expect I’ll see I got lucky on the survey this time. It’s been a while since the survey gods have smiled upon me. The statements should be out by mid day today.
