One must remember...........the tv show/movie you write for only has 
one carrier, that product.

Library can be sold hundreds of times over for any umber of uses any 
number of outlets Worldwide.

I always chuckle when my same cue is used as a Featured performance, a 
theme somewhere, a commercial, 'score, PA etc....... same piece. 
different pay ;-(

Does that make the piece better than anything else or worse?
