  Just wanted to state this Songtrust is not a PRO they are a publishing Administrator.

  With all the respect to Songtrust and the awesome services they're providing, but I have to share a little warning to indie-songwriters - think twice on adding YouTube content id option in Songtrust because after this your split in Youtube revenue will be decreased for additional portion Songtrust takes (yeah, songtrust is no free, they take 15%), your distributor is already gathering a revenue for you, you don't need it to do twice. CHEERS!

  What are you taking about band set song list? What if you’re not playing live ? Only releasing songs and videos?

  Many thanks for the videos, really great to learn from them. I've noticed your older tracks on Beatport are signed to various record labels and then after them the rest of your releases are released via distrokid, did you have a bad experience releasing on record labels or could you say why you stop using labels? I'm debating if labels or self releasing is the best way to go. Thanks

  All these features starts adding up monthly for an artist, which can be very tricky if there's not enough royalties coming in to set off the balance?

  So the first is to register the copyright of the song in your own country, the second is to release the song with distrokid or tunecore or other music distributors, and the third is to register the song with songtrust after the song appears on Spotify, right?
