Q2 Data Deadline Almost Here!
Monday, June 28th, 2010It’s probably not something worth blowing a vuvuzela over but, for better or worse, the deadline for submitting your station’s Q2 2010 SoundExchange reporting data to Public Interactive is quickly approaching: Friday July 9, 2010.
For those who are new to this process, or for those who don’t have it down pat yet, here are the basic SoundExchange reporting steps for this quarter:
- Choose your 14-day reporting period for Q2 2010, which must be two 7-day-consecutive periods completely contained between April 1 – June 30
- Create properly formatted playlist logs or, for Composer Pro clients, enter playlists with required reporting data directly into Composer Pro
- Obtain streaming access logs from your stream host for your chosen reporting period (not required for PI streaming clients)
- Upload playlist and streaming log files to Public Interactive using Composer Basic or Composer Pro
- Update/enter the guide information for each of your content streams in Composer Basic or Composer Pro, so that we can integrate playlists for those syndicated shows that you stream
- Specify the start dates of your two chosen reporting weeks using Composer Basic/Pro
- Contact me to let me know you’ve uploaded your data, updated your guide(s) and specified your reporting dates
- Have a beverage of your choosing to celebrate!
OK, let’s get this set of reports over with ASAP so we can all enjoy the summer!
