Why Professional Metadata Matters for Indie Artists
Having professional metadata is the first step in a successful promotion strategy. In the Australian music scene, clean credits ensure you get paid correctly by collection societies and look professional to curators.

FAQ
- What is the difference between © and ℗?
- The © symbol refers to the copyright in the underlying composition (lyrics and melody), while the ℗ symbol (phonogram) refers specifically to the sound recording itself.
- Whose name should I put in the copyright owner field?
- If you are an independent artist, this is usually your legal name or registered business name. If you are signed, it is typically your record label's name.
