Something that needs to be added; When registering with The US Library of Congress for copyright, you have a 5 year from creation limit to receive the *extra* protection. That would be that if you were wrongly sued over your song, the person who sued you will have to pay all court fees. This extra was put in place to protect the little guy from the infringer who has lots of money. It doesn't matter who has more money as long as you copyright within 5 years from creation to keep these rights.

If you publish a song online the release date is a proof that you are the actual copyright own. In order to have more than one proof you post the song lyrics on other websites to create more dates proof. I think another good way to make a proof for your copyright own. you can either write your song lyrics on a sheet of paper or typing paper is fine then take it to the bank to do notary. Every bank does have a "notary public" a person certified to notarize documents. it's free charge if you have a checking or saving account with their bank. All you need to do is bring your ID (driver license) with any documents that you want to have a notary. The notary person notarizes your document with his/her signature , date and seal and you also have to sign the document as well. The notary is one of the best proof for your copyright.

Trần Ngọc Sơn wrote, “The notary is one of the best proof for your copyright” *No it’s NOT; it can be faked!* Using a notary in your country or other countries may work, *but NOT in the USA!* I can copy/steal your music and take it to my bank, where the notary will acknowledge what’s on the written paper with its signature, date, and seal. The rotary is “witnessing” the affixation of your signature (to important documents) -- *the notary is NOT authenticating the validity of the musical copyright creation.* US-based creatives help *PROVE* their copyright creation & copyright ownership claims to a US federal judge by *“timely”* registering their works with the US Copyright Office (either registered as unpublished or registered within five-years of the first-publication date), as that *STATUTORILY* grants them *“prime facie evidence” (presumptive legal proof)* of their copyright creation. Here are the legal citations to review: 17 USC § 410 (Registration of claim and issuance of certificate) & 17 USC 506(e) (False Representation [Criminal Offenses]). If songwriters/musicians register more quickly, either BEFORE the infringement begins OR registered within three-months of first-publication, they can pursue statutory damages (from $750 to $30,000 and up to $150,000 for willful copyright infringement) and attorney fees and legal costs against the infringer (at the court’s discretion). FYI: The US copyright registration system is very much a *“vetting process”* to help authenticate your copyright validity. It’s not necessarily about having a RAW or original music file or unpublished manuscript/song-recording that proves your copyright creation - a US federal judge *MUST* see your ISSUED copyright *“Certificate of Registration.”* Your Certificate will include your “effective date of registration,” the official United States government date stamp! Similarly, mailing a copy of your work back to yourself via a self-addressed-stamp envelope (SASE) has NO legal foundation in US copyright law. Here’s what the US Copyright Office writes, *“The practice of sending a copy of your own work to yourself is sometimes called a ‘poor man’s copyright.’ There is NO [emphasis added] provision in the copyright law regarding any such type of protection, and it is NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR REGISTRATION [emphasis added].* Source: www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-general.html#poorman *Summary: If you’re based in the US, your notarized musical work will NEITHER offer you any presumptive legal proof of your copyright authorship NOR “legal standing” to pursue copyright infringers in federal court.*

PRAISE & Questions. THANK YOU for the organization of this video being concise, straightforward, bulletpointed and recapped at the end. Surprised this only has 5k views. I just subbed for the organization alone on top of the content. My questions for you now are: 1. If i wrote and am recording my first song, that makes me the independent songwriter as well as the *publisher* right. Now, do I truly need to sign up for admin publishing company? Because wouldn't that mean they, as the *publishing administrator* would take a percentage of my song royalties (that in reality will not get much traction). When I could have 100% of both royalties? 2. Clarification for the whole ending or order of operations and total of 5 next steps. First part At 7:00 mark when you say first steps or order of ops are "'register' with a PRO then a Publisher" By "Register" do you mean just initial *Signing up and make accounts with both a PRO and Admin Pub company first? 3. I thought that when you register your song with an Admin Pub Co, they register it for you at a PRO of your choice already. So I'm confused by what you mean at 7:00 then to first register with a PRO, then register with an Admin Pub Co, then register copyright, then register song with a publisher, then upload to distributor. Sorry long comment but thank you for your quality of content.

registering with a pro, a pub admin, and copyright are all separate. Once you sign up with a pub admin, you go through them for everything except copyright as far as I can tell. You have to register for a pro and pub admin separately but once they're set up you only need to work with the pub admin. since they're collecting royalties for you worldwide then they talk half of your mechanical royalties, afaik. I haven't gone through all of this yet but that's what I'm getting.

All true of course. But the most important question that an artist has to answer is, is your music any good. you have to cross these bridges once you start getting traction. Once in the public domain there is a timestamp so no real worries imo.

OK JamMob folks. My situation is a little more complicated I think, than what is covered in this video...I put together an album that has a total of 10 songs on it. Two songs were written by my brother Mikey and I (sadly, Mikey passed away a few years ago, but his wife is living, so if anything happened to where these songs were released and the public took to them at any level, I would want her to receive what Mikey would have realized by being a co writer), one song is written by a friend of mine,Danny, who is fine with that song being on the album, another is one Danny and I collaborated on, another is written by my oldest brother, Rae, who is living, but haven't asked him if it is ok if I release the album with his song on it (I'll put this in here as to clarify: all the music, like guitar, bass, keys, vocals, etc. were performed by me, with the exception of a harmonica part in one song, which was done by Danny, including my brother's song, which really is me doing a cover of his song), the rest of the songs on it were written by myself. The writing of these songs span over a 20 year period of time, and all the tracks on it are the original tracks, with enhancements multitracked into them to make the tracks glue together, if that makes any sense at all. At first, I considered it just a rough draft, and had intent to redo the whole thing, but then I thought if I did that, it may be way sonically superior, knowing what I know now about multitracking and mixing, but then decided it would loose the moment when the songs were conceived, and what took place when they actually became completed songs...so how do you handle this? Do I need permission from everyone involved before releasing them? I for sure want to give credit where credit is due, and have no intent for taking credit for something someone else wrote or conceived. Also, since a lot of the multitracks don't exist anymore (old computers and DAWs that are long gone), many I only have the 2 track mix downs, as stated earlier, that I have dropped into Logic and enhanced with stuff to make the album more cohesive from song to song...I don't want it to just sit without at least giving folks a chance to hear it, for better or worse. Any direction as to how to put this out the right way would be much appreciated. Thanks for the video, and hope all at JamMob are doing great.

The publishing registration is free on b.m.i. However if you plan on becoming a songwriter for a bunch of artists then you need your separate publishing company(choose a unique name for it) which costs 150 dollars and is also done with b.m.i.
