Hey Austin musicians! Want $200.00?!? Cool, here's an opportunity for anyone that meets these criteria:
In part I of this article I left out one exclusive right under Copyright law. . . on purpose of course. It is Digital Audio Transmission.
Basically referring to the new online & Satellite transmission of recordings, specifically, STREAMING (streaming audio, subscription-based entities). Examples: Pandora Radio, Sirius/XM, Spotify, etc. . .
Before I continue, I wanted to mention briefly that I was just recently asked by a reader of this article of when should a writer expect to be paid his/her royalties. The music publishing industry works on a quarterly basis when it comes to getting paid. So for all royalties generated by the use of the song, the music publishers will receive royalty payments every quarter.
