[Fmpro] Did you???????

OK thanks Ryan. I have been on the list pretty much since 2004 but I dont remember seeing talks about ad music per se. Not since Pete Surdoval was talking about CRM ad music but I dont remember a definitive answer to this question in that period. Tho there certainly are times when I am busy and I miss stuff ;) I will go check out the archives sometime soon!

Hi Chris, Ad music does get paid PRO royalties, but not easily. We have gone over it a fair bit on this forum so if you check the archives, you'll find a great deal about it. To sum it up, sometimes if you're not careful, you can get backed into a buyout deal. Not the best way to go. Best way is full union for singers and players and register the spot with ASCAP (BMI is not so good about commercials). Then you have multiple sources of revenue. I did it for about fifteen years and made a very decent living.
