The Sunset daily Blog is exactly one year old today!
English: Cover of Birth Control Review July 1919 Captions: “How shall we change the law?”, “Must She Always Plead in Vain? “You are a nurse – can you tell me? For the children’s sake – help me!” (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Planned Parenthood (Photo credit: WeNews)
This was about the time last year when Planned Parenthood and susan komen had their thing start up fiercely and it was about the time I realized that I was in my own so called bubble…I just did not know people cared about abortion today and woman’s rights if you will…which tend to all be about birth control, etc…I did not know they were issues today…so to speak….and then we had an entire primary and an election based with that as the focal points…it was wild to me and so I guess i need to be heard…this thing here, the sustainable action network growing huge in the last year, and then Ram Phan will be out sooner than later this year….its been cool…

It was announced that I will be accompanying the world renowned record producer, songwriter, and artist Jimmy Jam that will represent the interests of Recording Academy members on Capitol Hill, testifying before a Congressional hearing about important music royalty issues in April of next year….
Participants and performers at the Awards dinner to be announced soon. On Wednesday, November 28, record producer, songwriter, and artist Jimmy Jam will represent the interests of Recording Academy members on Capitol Hill, testifying before a Congressional hearing about important music royalty issues. I encourage you to watch the webcast of the hearing at http://judiciary.house.gov at 11:30 a.m. ET. and follow live updates from our Advocacy Twitter account at http://twitter.com/TRAinDC.
For the past few months, we have been vigorously opposing a bill misleadingly named the “Internet Radio Fairness Act.” This bill would dramatically cut the royalties that Internet radio services like Pandora pay to music creators, while doing nothing to close the loophole that allows AM/FM radio to pay nothing at all.
Creators should receive fair compensation for their work, and we will take that message directly to the Congressional Committee that oversees intellectual property. Jimmy Jam, Chair Emeritus of The Academy’s Board of Trustees, will be the only music creator testifying.
To learn more about the legislation or to take action, please visit http://grammy.com/action.
Tell Congress to Save Music and Stop the “Pandora Bailout Bill”
Don’t let the government force artists to subsidize Wall St. Corporations
We all love Internet radio. Services like Pandora play a diverse range of music and pay artists the royalties they deserve.
But last year, Pandora went public and now it’s acting like so many other companies on Wall Street— it’s asking for a bailout. This time, the government subsidy would be paid for by artists. …
- Tell Congress that Creators Should Be Paid For Their Work April 26, 2012 was GRAMMYs on the Hill Advocacy Day, a chance for Members of Congress and other policy makers to hear directly from the performers, songwriters and studio professionals who create music. …

Everything written here is based on actual experience between myself and any of the companies listed in this part of the blog. There is no hearsay and again, everything listed here on these pages, is based on pure experience, however, some of the terms are subject to have changed (please see below to contact us about any changes needed to be made) considering the landscape of this part of the music industry today. There is paperwork that is legally binding providing any business science behind any content in this listing.Also, aside from Tunecore and where noted above in each listing, all of these companies have a list of the same retail outlets. They alls seem to boast about getting songs and music into the same list of stores. I assume its some network because in some cases, these outlets are not even operable toady.Further, I have no direct tie to any of these companies and even though we do us some of them to this day, I honestly think its the lesser of all evils and that they all pretty much suck in some way. There is no way any of these companies have done the work to score a so called “10″ (ten) or a perfect score by my standards of working music, and I am talking that none of these companies get close to the perfection level. I also want to say that I have learned more about the landscape of the distribution over the last 4 years, than ever in my life. In some cases which I have stated about myself, I was maybe less [patient than I should have been at that time. I wanted instant gratification day one, and I had no idea of the process and time it took to work music digitally into stores.Overall, the ONLY reason I am posting this in my blog is to help anyone to never go through what I have gone through over the last few years. I feel great about this part of my life today, but it took a lot to get to this point time and I am NOT even 100% satisfied. Plus, there are corrupt companies that are scum bags that continue to take advantage of the control they have over the accounting and in some cases, they continue to take it upon themselves to collect that money. And, we have no way to stop that piracy.Oh and very last is that of the retailers that complied with doing the right thing with regard to taking down any illegal product, Amazon is awful, but at the same time, do like 13% of the marketplace. Its hard to get legal on that company when its much of your revenues. And, conversely, eMusic, REAL/Rhapsody and MySpace Music were absolutely on it when it came to dealing with that type of an issue. I am going to do another sweep around retailers and the next thing will be to make sure these retailers pay artists.As far as digital distributors, the worst company to deal with by far is REVERBNATION. They are against the artist. They make no bones about it and their marketing tools to entice the client, are based on lies. They are by far the worst company with regard to control, online today. They disguise themselves as a powerful player in this industry, but the fact is that they NOT only scam you business, they will NOT allow to get out of it. I marvel at how corrupt that company is towards artists and I do think if you do NOT get roped into paying to play if you will, Reverbnation is an ok marketing tool. Though its dated today and that company is best suited for bands that suck, and that can’t get any type of distribution in any way. And, any music artist that would use their digital distribution service, is again, either very poor musically and/or can’t get any of the others to distribute them. You have to be an idiot to use this company unless you don’t mind spending however much money to get and to get out of that situation. When in fact, no other company on this planet, acts that way towards its artists. I can safely say that Reverbnation will NOT be a company in this industry within the next few years. I have that in writing today and I have said that to people in writing now, three times this year. No one that acts that way towards music artists, is doing well in the board scheme of life.Distribution Company (Includes Aggregators): Payment Threshold: Sales Fee (%): Opt Out Time Frame: The problem with the latter is that it can create an effect where you have multiple listings up at retailers. The other problem with this way of dealing is that it derived from the computer industry and not the music business. That way of dealing is how the early online companies, dealt with changing music from distributor to distributor. For instance, if you have listing as Sunset records for three years and then you start using Interscope or maybe you change your label name or maybe you switched Indy’s, etc., if it does NOT read exact, and / or internally for them, if the text copy does “match” exact, you could feasibly have another listing posted, with that new information. Time Frame Take Down: In many cases like I emphasized about here, “opting out” of old deals can very much lead to multiple listings of the same exact title. Exclusivity: Another piece of advice is that everyone should think in terms of quality over quantity. Companies van boast about being in 500 stores, but if they don’t pay or if they go under or bankrupt, they keep 100% of your money. Its best to know what company is placing what into stores, in every way. Physical Product: On-Demand Production: Marketing Efforts: Overall 10 Point Rating: If you work at another Distribution Company that is not listed on this chart, and you would like it to be listed, contact us at any time. If you are you a Distribution Company that feels the information placed here has been written in error, is wrong in any way, and/or is outdated in any way, please feel free to contact us at any time to tell us about it. |
