In this DEFINITIVE video on How Music Publishing Works, we interview Trevor Mathiesen of Curb/Word Entertainment in Nashville, TN. We talk about Copyright, when something is copyrighted and when/if you need to register that copyright, as well as about copyright and licensing. We talk about Music Publishing and what a music publisher does.

We go behind the curtain of the music publishing industry and find out how they work in detail. We talk about PROs like BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, including how they work and find out how to get in SESAC which is invite only. We talk about performance royalties PROs collect including radio, TV, events, and classical.

We talk about Mechanical Royalties and how they work, including defining The MLC and what they collect, and then how SoundExchange work. Then we talk about Content ID and its importance to music publishing.
