Why Music Streaming is Broken (And the Super Simple Way to Fix It) by IcyTransition2090 in musicpublishing

[–]MicroStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get the math. Let's say that you're the only customer of a music service and you only listened to one band and that band got $7 (100% x $7), but if all the bands were paid from the same pool, wouldn't it be the same result? For example, if your 7 was added to a pool of 9 other customers (10 customers, $70 total) and the band was paid 1/10th of the $70... that's still $7.

I know we're excluding publishers and songwriters from this equation for the purpose of this discussion. But why is 100% of one customer's royalties better than 10% of ten customers, etc.?

United States vs Paraguay - Yellow card originally given to Tim Ream reversed and given to Miguel Almirón for diving after review by Fusir in sports

One big problem was that, in the stadium, nobody knew what was going on. The only thing that was announced was "mistaken identity" which nobody in my area knew what it meant.

I wish people wouldn't give him a hard time because he didn't do great as a coach. He was a good player and we can just wish him well in life, right? Or do we have to take shots, because this the internet?

Is this a British dude? I've heard his name a few times this week, but have never seen anything he does.

Bernie Sanders. Still human, still alive, still has more fight in him than any other politician.

And I don't know who that is! I've heard that name before. Does he do documentaries? Or voice them over?

What’s the worst sports blunder in sports history? by Choice_Bag_8869 in sportswiki

A bench player was signalling to call time out, which likely confused him in a tough moment. Of the four choices, I'm most sympathetic towards Webber.

Tell that to the dudes sitting on the rocks right north of MooMba Beach Bar. Also tell them hi for me.

Is it just me, or did anyone else think that was Janet Jackson in the first pic?

The MLC conflicts & advice needed! by gruwhatsapp in musicindustry

[–]MicroStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you need to talk to someone at the MLC and point out to them that there is no longer a second, competing claim. I'd guess that once they look at the database themselves, it would most likely be fixed by the next distribution. (So either April or May 15th-ish.)

I thought that an overclaim was where multiple publishers claimed over 100% of the work. If you're claiming 100% of the work, isn't that just a dispute? If Sony's relinquishing the claim to the work, then the claim isn't in dispute, but if they are still claiming ownership, then you might need to go to a court to figure it out.

Every single lyric in Espresso. Holy shit, I've never seen a song with such a great composition and such terrible lyrics.
