CHAPTER 7 Revenue Streams: Music Publishing

DOI: 10.4324/9781315684147-10

Chapter overview

Music publishing is a large and important area of the music industry, generating revenue through licensing agreements that exploit music copyrights. Royalty revenue comes through contractual relationships with songwriters, composers, and recording artists. Promoting songs, supervising the collection and payment of royalties, and placing songs in movie and TV soundtracks and commercials allows for the development of multiple and recurrent revenue streams. Kobalt Music, an innovative music publisher, is highlighted. The DIWO (Do It With Others) section offers practical advice to music professionals on how to collect all the royalties you are due.
