Sociedades colectoras

¿Qué son las sociedades colectoras?

Estas son las organizaciones responsables de rastrear, cobrar y pagar regalías a los propietarios de derechos de autor. 'Sociedad colectora' es un término genérico para referirse a todas las organizaciones responsables. Individualmente, también pueden denominarse "sociedades de derechos de ejecución" o "sociedades de gestión colectiva". Básicamente: las sociedades colectoras se ocupan de un conjunto de derechos completamente diferente al de un distribuidor y pueden ser muy útiles para recibir regalías adicionales.

¿Necesito estar registrado en una sociedad de gestión colectiva para distribuir mi música con iMusician? 

No, el registro en una sociedad de gestión colectiva no es un requisito para distribuir tu música con iMusician.

¿Qué es un IPI / CAE? 

El número IPI / CAE es un número de identificación internacional asignado a compositores, letristas y editores para identificar de forma única a los titulares de derechos. Esto significa que tu nombre de artista siempre se puede rastrear legalmente.
