Hi all! New here and wanna ask about the PRO's

Post by enlighten » Tue Apr 11, 2006 2:09 pm

Hi all. I'm new here. Have a question concerning the PRO's. I'm a songwriter who has not signed with an publishing company. (and hence owns 100% of both writer's share and publisher's share) If I affiliate with BMI and somehow successfully got a track on a TV commercial. Would I be able to get BOTH the writer's share and publisher's share from BMI without having to start my own publishing company and affiliate that with BMI?Thanks!

Yes. You'll just need to specify that on the Bmi registration form for the songs in question.
