I agree with Tony as well that much depends on the music as to how and where it should be submitted. @Anon, could you explain to me the purpose of pseudonyms, dont you dilute your brand name when you do that, what benefit does it serve ? retitling does have an administrative benefit. Is there a need to be covert about this, therefore the pseudonym ….

Thanks for all the responses… the environment has been changing rapidly. Most notably, i have been hearing that ASCAP (my PRO) is pursuing digital fingerprinting, this can create a lot of confusion specially for retitled tracks. The fact that the members of this forum are quite evenly divided means that there is no overwhelming support for either side. I personally see music undergoing a shift from being a service to a commodity and as a result, i feel that at the end of the day the non exclusive model will prevail. I think fingerprinting is the way to go forward, at least then, hopefully we wont have problems of unreported usage of our tracks.
