The website does not appear to be working.
Thanks DI.
Wouldn’t it be “semi” exclusive since, according to their website, you’re restricted from shopping the same music to other libraries?
Thanks dblock, fixed it.
No problem Art. It’s great that you keep up with all these posts so the site is as up to date as possible. Kudos for your efforts.
Steve
Do you know anything about their track record with placements?
Are you going to ask them if they would consider adding a clause to the contract whereby you could remove tracks with a certain amount of notice, maybe after 1-2 years?
Thanks
anon,
Sorry I haven’t seen or heard anything about their track record on placements or pay outs yet. I know of someone else that has asked about them on another forum but she received no reply about it.
Here’s the deal with them.

P.S. I did not vote here on them. I was accepted in to their library and just got their contract. I most likely will not sign with them because of the Contract length and no option to have music removed from their library.
Thanks Steve, just updated the listing.
