Webcasting, TV, And Radio Broadcasting

Webcasting is basically a broadcast over the internet. There are three types of webcasting in relation to a signed recording artist.

1. Music that is played be self-declared DJs, and by regular, over the air radio stations that actually put there signal on the internet.

2. Streaming on demand of audio or videos on the internet.

3. Artists who broadcast their concerts over the internet.

The types of webcasting numbers one and two are very straightforward. The label has rights to one and two because they are using your masters, which they control. You will still get your royalties on one and two, but not all of it. Number three you get all the profits. When making your own music and broadcasting live your label will want a piece. Just make sure that you have this in your contract. Number three, the label does not make a dime as long as it is in your deal. The label will fight hard to get a chunk.

Artists And Bands Websites

Artists And Bands Websites

Years ago in the music industry, websites were not as popular as today. They were considered unknown creatures and labels were registering sites without permission from the artists or bands. During the term, labels have an exclusive license to set up the artists website, and the artist is allowed to set up his "unofficial website". After the contractual term the official site rights goes back to the artist. In the music business the labels will recoupe the costs of maintaining a website and can charge you up to $25,000. When making your own music and recording with a label monetize your site with merchandise. Remember that the label will have a "360 Deal" clause in your contract and will be entitled to a percentage that you sell on your site and the official site.
