 Hey what's up everybody it's Tuko from Music ID TV and this is Use the News. So a lot of us know that we are necessarily consuming music through streaming. Yeah, we use Spotify, we use Taito, we use Deezer, Apple Music, so on and so forth. But there is still more ways that people are engaging with music online and there still means that there's more opportunity for you to make more money from the way people might be engaging in your music online and that is where sound exchange comes in. So sound exchange collects non-interactive digital royalties. Non-interactive pretty much means you can't choose the song that you're playing. So think about Pandora, think about Beats One Radio, think about Satellite Radio, these are all the places that your music could be potentially but you may not be receiving the royalties from that and if sound exchange isn't collecting it on your behalf you won't get that money. So it's kind of imperative that you do register your music with sound exchange. Another thing is that sound exchange does not have much competition when it comes to other entities who are trying to do the same thing because they are designated by the government to collect these specific type of royalties on that song, right, but Artisan Labels' behalf. Now the difference between sound exchange and the likes of ASCAP or BMI is ASCAP or BMI works on the songwriter side and sound exchange works on the artist and label side for digital performances in non-interactive platforms where people can't choose what song they listen to. So there's a multitude of royalties out there, sound exchange is one of the companies that are providing another opportunity for you to actually receive these royalties. I know this royalty talk can be a bit overwhelming but I do plan on touching a little bit on these in-video so you guys get an idea on just better ways to make more money from your music. So in closing definitely check out sound exchange, there is no sign-up fee, it is open to all but they do take a 5% commission from royalties that they do collect on which is said to be one of the lowest globally so that's not that bad. But if you already registered with sound exchange please let us know if you are making any money from sound exchange. People need to know if these platforms are actually doing what they say they will do and nothing's better than testimonials especially from a community in which we kind of are interacting to exchange information so please leave that information in the comment section below beyond that be sure to share with a friend like and subscribe once again this is Tuko and this is Use the News, Sayonara.
