ASCAP vs. BMI: Key Differences Explained

Considering the ASCAP vs. BMI debate, whether it's ASCAP's no-fee policy for songwriters or BMI's varied fee structure for music publishers, I've got the scoop on what's best for your wallet and your work.

Is one organization a crescendo of opportunity, or is the other a downbeat on your royalties? Watch the full video to discover which PRO harmonizes best with your career goals before the applause fades on your potential!

Yes, Yes.. thank you for the intel. i'm trying to go forward with the initial process of getting my writing and publishing (of music making) on point. & this short video is concise and very informative.. where others can tend to seem biased, fast talking and steering you in a certain direction.. Stay creative and blessed.. Once again, many thanks

Amazing video! Super helpful..thank you!

[b_rad_tunes-n-stuff]

Just ran across this video months after it posted, but you clarified a lot. Very helpful. However, one thing I’m wondering is I’ve heard the payouts between the two are slightly different, one being more than the other in average. Not clear which is which for that or if that matters and balances out somehow when choosing. Great video, and clarification.

[Rastetah]

Thank you Tarcea. Love your info. I will go to ascap.
