Congrats, Andy!! That is awesome, and super inspiring! :)

A question if you wouldn't mind - you say you have 735+ registrations on BMI, is that just tracks you yourself have registered, or does that include tracks of yours that other publishers have registered for you? I may have understood something incorrectly, but I thought if someone else publishes your track (like a library or something) that they would register it and you don't need to. Forgive my ignorance, I'm very new to this.

Again congrats! I hope your checks only continue to get bigger and bigger

its a combo.

Some I have self-registered as they were written for direct pitches to film / tv / ads. Some of those are also with non-exclusive publishers (so the publishers registered them themselves under a distinct title).

Some of those are also with non-exclusive publishers and not directly pitched by me and so whatever title the non-ex publisher registered as is the only title for that piece.

Some of them are exclusive tracks that are only registered by the exclusive publishers (and I didn't register them at all).
