Ball park fees for songs?

Hi all. Seriously thinking about joining TAXI, but I was wondering what sort of money gets offered when (if) you get a song accepted into, say, a music library or a film?What sort of offers have you all had?Cheers.

Hi - Matt had a great post about this somewhere, but I can't find it. There's no ballpark. There are so many variables. It depends on the deal & the use of the piece. Even if you get an advance, it's usually deducted from your future earnings.
