Hey guys, where i can find this “Sales Reversal” section? I can´t see it in my Statement – does it mean that i´m the lucky one not seeing this?

Do you have any screenshots?

Thanx

Pavel “CHA!”

All you need to know is on this thread:

Hi there,

Just to throw yet even more ideas into the hat, please feel free to take a peek at my collections here. I specialize in in the kind of music you mentioned, so maybe there’s something of interest. Thanks!

I highly doubt world-renowned composers would ever consider selling music at these prices.

No you do not understand it, they were just guests that visited the site for a day For one day they could be reviewers say, and to answer interesting questions of all members, for example.

Ahhh, I get it! Yes, that’s actually quite a cool idea. I remember when producer Tony Maserati hung out over on the Gearslutz forum and gave a questions and answers session, with some very valuable information. I even ended up buying his custom Waves plugins as a result!

And even if they did, they technically couldn’t anyway, as they’re most likely all PRO registered!

Or maybe..

Excellent stuff Jameson! Hopefully that extra exposure will pay off!

ps. I still remember you as THE first author to leave a comment on one of my items here when I first joined AJ!

I agree more with LIam. This site is for more small companies and projects, they look for fast and cheap way to get music for their projects, that’s why they buy from here.

Mostly, yes, but not all. I’ve had a handful of production companies buy licenses of my music from AJ that have personally contacted me to inform me of it being aired on national TV and Radio. I could potentially receive royalties for that if my tracks were PRO registered. And then I could invest that extra money back into my business, to improve my product – thus putting higher quality material out onto AJ, for example. I guess the view from the top of the mountain is just a different view from the bottom.

Yeah thats what I’m saying, you can’t collect performance royalties from songs here so there is no point in asking for the cue sheet or even a brief description of how the song is being used

And what I’m saying is that quite a few of us here DO want to collect performance royalties, as you can on most other sites.

To echo what Taco has said, there’s a fair number of us selling here on AJ whereby it’s our full-time job. I’m one of them. And knowing there’s a potential revenue stream, that I can’t access because I upload here, can be pretty frustrating to say the least, as others have also mentioned.

Personally, I just want to hear Envato’s official take on the situation, just so we know where we stand on all of this.

I disagree with this post, this site is ROYALTY FREE, which means once the buyer has bought it, that’s it, you can’t earn royalties on it, which means there is no point in us knowing where the songs are being used except for our own personal gratification. I think this would put people off as a lot of buyers that come to this site are small companies or individuals that don’t know anything about licensing, they just want good music for their project at cheap prices. I can’t see how you would gain anything from knowing where your songs are being used here… you can’t claim any money from it.

Not to get into too much detail here, and derail this thread, but looks like there’s a little confusion over what ‘Royalty Free’ actually is. ‘Royalty Free’ just means that the buyer pays a fixed license fee ($17 for example) and won’t have to pay a royalty to the creator every time it’s used. One of the concerns over here on AJ is that we can’t claim for ‘performance royalties’, which could be paid to royalty collection organizations by radio stations, TV networks, etc, who are using and ‘performing’ our music publicly, and then distributed to us, the creators. It’s a very different situation, and has been recently brought up (again!) in this thread here.

EDIT: LOL, you guys got there before me! Must type faster!

I’d like to nominate a couple of really talented guys over on AJ, who’s music I believe is ideal for this bundle:
