Yeah, streaming’s a different thing all together. Doesn’t matter how many viewers have seen it, but even the base royalty payouts are lower than terrestrial TV for sure.

Huh? Am I reading this correctly that some people here have *millions* of placements and make pennies? What? I’m in Germany and terrestrial TV placements can get you several dozen € per placement.

Hi everyone, hope you’re having a good start of the week. I tried creating a new thread, but it didn’t work, so I’m pasting it in here; it’s about the same library as I’ve written above.

So this library has shut down. I didn’t have a contract with them, apart from an agreement on splits via Facebook. Since then, their CEO has apparently changed their mind in the sense that they want full IP of the tracks, for the small amount of upfront money I was given. Now, as they have still been unable to provide the contract to me, I am definitely planning to go and get my tracks out of there. My question would be, should I send them a final email, or just go with an IP lawyer directly? I don’t want to spend a whole lot of money on a lawyer, as it was 30 or so tracks, so it might not be worth it, but I do want the best possible outcome. I also want it to be fair, as they did pay me some upfront money for the tracks, but they aren’t listening.

Cheers!

Yep, hard lesson learned.

I got upfront payments for those tracks, so not sure I can do that; we had a verbal agreement. A pretty complicated situation, as you can imagine.

Yes, all rights; they’re royalty-free model, though.

I’m not referring to PB. This is another library, exclusive, full buyout with all rights, in perpetuity.

Hey Mark, thanks. What about if they’re royalty-free?

I can’t say what they’re offering as it’s not fixed yet, but I’m very certain they won’t offer anywhere near that…

Hey Art, thanks for the fast reply. All of it; buyout of the artist share (they’re the publisher), and owning the rights to the song and the master.
