[Fmpro] Simple Hello

[Lynne T. Conte]

Joel,

More information that I researched:

"A  music publisher deals in the marketing and commercial exploitation of
songs. Originally, the term referred to publishers of
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_music>sheet
music, but this has changed largely over the years, and today's music
publishers rarely deal with printed music or scores. (Those who do have come
to be known as "music print publishers".) Music publishers regularly handle
and control the rights to transcriptions and uses of musical works, and act
on behalf of  <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songwriter>songwriters in
matters of distributing royalties and protection against
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright>copyright
infringement."

Musically Yours,

Lynne/Talent Manager
