ASCAP Daily Brief - January 9, 2014

Thursday, January 09, 2014

We are pleased to offer you the ASCAP Daily Brief powered by The Dean's List This daily email, compiled by ASCAP Board member, music publisher and songwriter Dean Kay, cuts through the media clutter to bring you links to the most relevant news and commentary on the rapidly evolving music industry and how it affects your future livelihood. Now the ASCAP Daily Brief can be accessed on the Headlines page of ASCAP.com and in the ASCAP RSS Feed. "Copyright theft is theft as in identity, not in car." Richard Bennett - Visiting Fellow, American Enterprise Institute How Copyright Law Gave Us STAR WARS  By Devin Faraci Shorten Copyright Terms? Okay, Then What? By David Newhoff NMPA and Fullscreen Reach Settlement Agreement  Press release -- The settlement will enable music publishers that opt in to the agreement to receive compensation for previous use of their works in these videos. Moving forward, Fullscreen will work with music publishers to license musical works. Fullscreen affiliated channels with videos containing music will be licensed under YouTube's direct licenses with music publishers, and Fullscreen will remove video content containing unlicensed music that appear on Fullscreen managed channels. ... "This settlement demonstrates the fundamental value of songwriters and their music publishing partners, and highlights NMPA's mission to fight for fair compensation and protection of songwriters' rights," said David Israelite, NMPA president and CEO. The Real Story Behind Hollywood's Villain By Sabrina Schaeffer -- CBS's 60 Minutes ran a human interest story Sunday night on "Hollywood's Villain," also known as Kim Dotcom, the founder of the $2.5 billion file sharing company Megaupload. The story was an interesting, voyeuristic view into DotCom's background and lavish lifestyle; but it missed an important opportunity to explain why the case against DotCom and Megaupload is really so serious [Thanks to Neil Turkewitz for the link.] 2013 Proved It: We Are in a Golden Age of Music Videos By Rob Walker -- Do you remember the golden age of the music video? You should, because it's happening right now. Meet the New Boss: YouTube's Monopoly on Video By Chris Castle -- Take a look at this graph and ask yourself how did this come to pass? Then ask yourself what would it take for a television network to get to the same position without manipulating the market and search fixing? [Be sure your head is screwed on tightly. This could blow your mind.] Silicon Valley for the NSA's Data Slurp... and What to Do About It By Andrew Orlowski -- Widespread ridicule has greeted the announcement that eight giant technology companies led by Google and including Facebook and LinkedIn were going to save us from the NSA. The ridicule is thoroughly justified, for trusting giant corporations - whose business models rely on selling your identity to advertisers - to safeguard your privacy is like hiring a kleptomaniac to guard the sweet shop. ...Before we can understand why tech/media companies can't protect the individual, and why their "solutions" are impoverishing us, ...we need to see how complicit the data business was with the behavior of the intelligence agencies. [Do you really want Google in your pocket?] 2014 Expected to be Android's Billion-Unit Year Thanks to Post-PC Shifts By Stuart Dredge -- More than one billion Android devices are expected to ship this year, according to research firm Gartner. It expects 1.1bn Google-powered smartphones and tablets to ship in 2014, driven by surging demand for these devices in the developing world as well as established Western markets. ...Android's popularity is likely to be a big spur for the growth of digital entertainment services, including music. $1 Billion as Milestone and Omen By David Gelles and Claire Cain Miller -- Silicon Valley today is a huge, undulating bubble. But which companies are overvalued and which are not is the $1 billion question. Twitter Shares Drop on Fears about Advertising Revenue By Jessica Guynn -- The Street's Jim Cramer was asked Monday about Twitter. He called the money-losing social media high flier a "love stock." If that's the case, the honeymoon may soon be over. SmartEQ Remembers Settings for Each Song on iOS By Eliot Van Buskirk -- EQ not something many of us put a ton of thought into, each and every time we tap the play button. But as with anything, some people become obsessed, dialing in precise equalization settings for each song in their iTunes library. ...If you know exactly how you want each song to sound, SmartEQ can do that... [This story is a much more interesting than the tease.] Multiple Personalities By Baynard Woods -- Classical pianist Kevin Gift began to make digital music after a problem with his left index finger initially made it impossible for him to play. ...Wendel Patrick and Kevin Gift are the same person, with four separate albums out in early January. [That's 1. And probably the last.] Adele's '21' Becomes First Album to Sell Over 3 Million Digital Copies By Jon Blistein How to Create SMARTER Goals for Your Music By Simon Tam -- Author Zig Ziglar often said, "If you aim at nothing, you'll hit it every time." Your music career is no different. The "World's Largest Record" is on Top of the Forum in Inglewood… By Nina Ulloa [When Gay Bryant coined the phrase "Glass Ceiling" in 1984 I'm pretty sure she didn't have this in mind as a way of breaking it.] Never Mind the Résumé. How Hot Is the C.E.O.? By Andrew Ross Sorkin -- A study suggests that investors give higher share values to companies run by attractive chief executives. ...Call it the "C.E.O. beauty premium." DEAN KAY Dean Kay has been at the helm of some of the most highly respected and forward thinking music publishing companies in the world, first as COO of the Welk Music Group, then as President/CEO of the US division of the PolyGram International Publishing Group, and now as President/CEO of his own precedent setting venture, Lichelle Music Company. Prior to his involvement in publishing, he was a successful songwriter, having had hundreds of his compositions recorded - including "That's Life" by Frank Sinatra. Mr. Kay has been a member of the Board of Directors of ASCAP since 1989 and is Chairman of its New Technologies Committee. He is also on the Board of the National Music Publishers Association (NMPA).

The Dream
For all people in the music business, it starts with a dream. Everyone who ever achieved success, the musicians you admire – they started with a dream too. They had to start from nowhere, to arrive at “somewhere” just like everyone else. Wait!” you say, “Some of these people got where they are because they knew someone, had relatives in the biz, famous parents, etc.” While that may be true that some are born into music business connections and experienced influences, having those things alone will not make it happen for them. One has to be able to walk the walk. You can have all the well-connected friends and relatives you want, but you still have to deliver on the talent side. Skill is something that each person has to develop through their own effort. At the end of the day, everyone has to deliver the goods. Connections may get you to the doorstep, but talent allows you to remain in the room and be invited back.

The Unknown
For many people, sadly, it will remain a dream. Not because they do not have the talent, but because they will not make the true effort and commitment it takes to reach their goal. This world is full of brilliant and talented people that will go undiscovered and will remain unknown.

You May Be Your Biggest Barrier
We are often our own worst enemy. We want to “make something happen,” yet we don’t take the steps it really takes to get there. Or worst yet, we don’t take any steps at all. We sometimes do part of the work, (usually the creative part), but not the rest of the work it takes to succeed. We come up with excuses as to why we can’t get started right now. There are many excuses.

Excuses, Excuses.
- When I have more money / Money is tight right now.
- When things in my life to settle down / my schedule slows down.
- When I learn to play an instrument / or play it better.
- When I don’t have to work full-time.
- After my kids get out of school / or start school.
- When I can move to a music center.
- After my divorce.
- When I finish school.
- When my spouse/partner/roommate get a higher paying job.
- When the timing is right.
- When I figure out what I need to do.
- When I meet the right people / I don’t know how to meet the right people.
- When I find an investor.
- When my style comes back in/ or when people get me
- When the economy improves.
- When work/business picks up.
- After the holidays.
- When I improve my songs a bit more.
- When I can afford to record demos.
- When someone discovers my songs on youtube (add any site here).
- When publishing companies start hiring more writers again.
- When music styles go back like they were.
- When traditional country music comes back in.
- When this high tech stuff in music goes away.
- When I “hit it big” in Vegas (lottery, whatever).
- When the right people discover me.
- I’m too old / too young. 


Do any of those above sound intimately familiar to you? Hmmm?

Do it now – No More Excuses
As bad as this sounds to say, it’s a fact: every day your life is getting shorter. Every day you are losing time. There is no right time, nor will there ever be a perfect time. There is only time itself and time moves ever forward for us Earthlings. The time is now. Right now.

Action!
Every step you take right now moving forward – is a step towards your dream. Only by taking action, will you have any chance of making your dream a reality. You may have the greatest talent in the world but without taking action – all that talent cannot make your dream come true. Only action can. Make a commitment to yourself and to your dream to take action. Take it today. Right now.

Next, for further discussion of this topic of “no more excuses,” read our article about 5 successful songwriters who overcame challenges, conquered all excuses, made sacrifices along the way and achieved success. You’ll find it inspiring and you’ll see they could have made many of the excuses listed in this article, but they didn’t. Instead, they took action, and ultimately made their dream come true.
