Books Descriptions
(Book). Since the publication of the first edition in 2005, The Plain and Simple
Guide to Music Publishing has emerged as the premier guide to the subject.
With sufficient depth to be used as a text at major college music industry
programs including UCLA, NYU and Northeastern, the book also remains
simple and clear enough for the lay songwriter to gain a crucial understanding
of musical copyrights and licensing basics. To wit, the second edition garnered
33 customer reviews on Amazon.com, with a rating of 4.8 out of 5 possible stars.
In this expanded and updated third edition, with a foreword by Tom Petty, the
author adds greater depth to such increasingly important topics as the rapidly
shifting industry paradigms, the growing importance of streaming and
subscription models, a discussion of new compulsory license media, the impact
of copyright terminations and reversions, updated advice on current license
prices, as well as all the basics of copyright and rights management.
