If you’re releasing a cover song, or a song that you don’t own the publishing rights for, you might need to purchase a license to cover any royalties generated from downloads of your track in the United States.
Thankfully, our friends at Affordable Song Licensing make this really easy.
The Affordable Song Licensing folks can cover you for a minimum of 25 downloads, but make sure you double check the number you select, as it’s your responsibility to get another license before that number of downloads is exceeded. EmuBands, makes it super easy to check how many you’ve sold thus far.
