So PMA Peeps, and Your Music Your Future folks, and Board members at the PRO’s – if you are listening and reading and I know some of you are, schedule some meetings and get this straightened out. We’re really sick and tired of these bogus excuses and our confidence in your approach of tracking music on air is eroding. We are not stupid and uninformed either.

News Flash: There is no such thing as a “small time” TV network. I am sorry but ESPN, BTN, SCRIPPS are companies making tons of money. ESPN is backed by Disney. People all over the world are watching this content every day at home in bars, in airports, in hotels…everywhere!

This should be sent directly to Your Music Your Future and start a campaign just as they did about the Discovery Networks situation!

I’m not picking out a specific company, but I did just purchase Spitfire BBC Orchestra. I have several other libraries from Spitfire and love them, but just read on another site that the licenses/software cannot be sold or transferred. Not sure that would have changed my mind on the purchase, but it will definitely affect my future purchases with such companies.

I personally think that it would be fantastic if the composer and/or publisher had the technology in their own hands to watermark their own tracks. This would eliminate the need to re-title at all! The data could be tracked by Tunesat and reported to all involved, including the PRO’s. Just like Advice says, embed the composer, publisher, and PRO ID’s directly in the track, and done. I’m not sure why a company, even Tunesat themselves, would not create and sell such a software package directly to composers/publishers? I’m certain it would be beneficial to all.

“Under the heading that you can’t please everyone!”
Also refer to the headings “If it bothers you, stop using it” & “What the what?”.

BTW Art, I love this idea, and its execution. 🙂
