Make Money on Myspace

SESAC -performing rights organization in the U.S. has a relationship with Myspace wherein whenever one of their members songs are played in someone else's Myspace Music Player their member receives a royalty.

Here's How It Works:

Kim is a singer/songwriter and has hear songs available for download in her Myspace Music Player. Barry downloads (transfers) Kim's song into his Myspace Music Player. Whenever someone plays Kim's song from Barry's Myspace Music Player, Kim is due a performance royalty from SESAC. Myspace pays SESAC a licensing fee and SESAC pays that money or a portion of that money to its' songwriter, music composer (producer) and music publishing members.

The really cool thing about this situation is you don't have to be signed to a major record label, publishing company or have major distribution. You do have to be a member of SESAC, complete the necessary paperwork, have a Myspace Profile (page) and market and promote your music online.
