ASCAP vs. BMI: Key Differences Explained

Музыка

Considering the ASCAP vs. BMI debate, whether it's ASCAP's no-fee policy for songwriters or BMI's varied fee structure for music publishers, I've got the scoop on what's best for your wallet and your work. Plus, I'll share my personal favorite based on my own experience in the music biz. 🌟 If this helps you, please like, comment, and subscribe!
Choosing the right performing rights organization (PRO) is no simple melody. ASCAP's championing of songwriters with their free membership now clashes head-on with BMI's flexibility for publishers, leaving creators caught in a key change. Is one organization a crescendo of opportunity, or is the other a downbeat on your royalties? Watch the full video to discover which PRO harmonizes best with your career goals before the applause fades on your potential!

    Just ran across this video months after it posted, but you clarified a lot. Very helpful. However, one thing I’m wondering is I’ve heard the payouts between the two are slightly different, one being more than the other in average. Not clear which is which for that or if that matters and balances out somehow when choosing. Great video, and clarification.

    Thanks for watching and commenting. Glad it was helpful! Honestly payout is tricky. Ascap pays out more often than BMI and BMI is is in a deal now where it's being sold so it's hard to say how that's gonna pan out. It also depends on what kind of music uses you may be dealing with as well. For example, broadcasted music vs. music for the general public will be handled differently.

    Thanks for that. I'm a drummer and have been writing for bands and those situations. But I'm letting that go and getting into sync now and in the process, I've heard that the ASCAP & BMI actually have a different payout $ amount, one more than the other. Not sure, but I'll be signing on with one of the two PROs this week after some further review, leaning toward ASCAP, seems like many in that area are BMI. Thanks again! @@TarceaRenee

    Hey Ms. Tarcea. I'm a college artist that's been writing poems for years, but just now starting to take it seriously. I'm a rapper. What's the best way to learn more about the business, engineering, production, lyricism, branding and marketing aspects that support the art; and is ASCAP vs. BMI better or worse depending on the genre for royalties? This is my first video watching you. Thanks.

    Awesome! I am new to your channel and I've just subscribed to your channel. This is the second video I am watching from your channel now and before I go futher I kinda have some questions to ask you regarding this Ascap/BMI video and the first video watched on about "Best music distributor. " Q 1. What if I am not from the United States. I am an independent Nigerian Afrobeat Singer/Songwriter/Producer from Nigeria and i want to join Ascap since it's the best in the US. How will I do that? Q 2. In what payment option will I get paid my royalties, since I don't have a physical US bank account? Q 3. About the Illustrate Music Distribution. I am just hearing about them for the first time. Is that the distribution platform you have been using till currently or? How are we sure it's not gonna disappoint us at the withdrawal time just as Ditto and most distribution companies does today to independent artists? Q 4. Which payment options does illustrate music distributor uses to easily pay their foreigners? Please I am curious all the above questions.

    Thanks for subscribing! I would say read a few things on the site to grow in trust but I’ve gotten paid out for sure. You only need to accumulate at least $10 to make a withdrawal and the yearly fee is super low for a really great Distro better than others I’ve gone through before

    1. I'm not sure of how that works, but most other countries use a service called PRS outside of the United States. I would maybe google PRO companies for your country specifically. 2. Your PRO company will have various options. Most of the time direct deposit, but they determine this. 3. I have used Illustrate for over a year now without disappointment. I still use it. Nobody can tell you for sure that YOU won't be disappointed. We are in different countries with different regulations and I wouldn't mix the issues from another company with a different one. You could have unique issues based on your releases or your country's rules/regulations. 4. I know they do direct deposit and I believe paypal or payoneer if you request it with support Hope this helps!
