Makes sense Tbone
When you sign with a publisher, you’ll have to give them your PRO membership info. So, your royalties would be paid through ASCAP. At that time, if the publisher is with SESAC, they may turn you down, or using your ASCAP info, send your royalties there. No experience with this, but it’s reasonable to assume this. Either way, at the time of signing with a publisher, it would be settled.
Wondering how one gets an invite if they don’t know you exist.
Wow, so complicated! Maybe it should be left up to first come, first serve basis. As far as the exclusive libraries, I don’t see a problem. If they’re the only ones that have your exclusive tracks, they have complete control over Content ID with them. The non-exclusive libraries should know the situation, and shouldn’t expect special privileges. First come, first serve for non-exclusives.
Flip a coin between ASCAP & BMI. Unless you have a crystal ball Tucker.
IMO, it doesn’t matte Mark. Place them in order for your listening pleasure.
BTW, the major networks are monitored 24/7.
No, an ASCAP representative explained it to me. If it doesn’t show up on their survey, you don’t get paid. The cue sheets were turned in on time and properly. I showed the rep all the cue sheets, and was told that didn’t matter. On a positive note, many shows have showed up on their survey, without cue sheets shown, and I was paid. So, maybe it all balances out.
