Q1 2012 SoundExchange Deadline
Monday, January 30th, 2012Thanks to the blood, sweat and tears (not to mention the cursing) of lots of people, NPR Digital Services was able to complete and submit the Q4 2011 SoundExchange reports last week.
For those interested in the gory details, the reports covered:
- 327 stations
- 522 content channels
- 19.4 million aggregate tuning hours devoted to music streaming
- 890,000(ish) recordings
Each (featured) performer on every one of those recordings is now eligible to collect royalty money (paid on behalf of your station by the CPB) from SoundExchange. See? We’re helping starving (and some not-so-starving) artists to get paid!
Now that the hangover from the Q4 reports has (just about) cleared, it’s time to face reality and get crackin’ on your reporting data for the Q1 2012 reports. Those data should come from with the period of January 1 through March 31 and must be submitted to to NPR Digital Services by Friday, April 6 2012.
Keep up the great work, everyone!
