BigRedX Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 IME there is zero point to having your songs published unless the publishing company is going to be proactively promoting them to get them used on films TV etc. If they haven't given you a massive advance for the publishing rights then they are unlikely to be doing this. All that will happen is that the publishing company will take a chunk of your royalties (between one third and a half) and your songs will sit in a catalogue somewhere hoping that someone will stumble over them.

RockfordStone Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) if you are wanting to put your songs out, you are better putting them on itunes, spotify, amazon yourself. for not a lot of money, you can set up your own merchandise websites, bigcartel i think is one, tunecore for the publishing of songs. its really easy to do yourself, unless you are looking for someone to fund a massive advertising campaign... which of course you can also do yourself Edited July 28, 2015 by RockfordStone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
