You would have to get permission from the co-signer to use it elsewhere. I have 2 exclusive contracts with Express Artist and they told me that. In general, I'd stay away from exclusive contracts. How long is the term? Mine are 4 years. After that, it's void.

Diane,
Thanks so much for your more than kind words. Actualy, a number of my songs are "Under Consideration" so until I receive a contract I'm not so excited. In fact, one of my songs, You Need a Wife, was chosen to be in a Christmas movie, Letters at Christmas, but I don't believe the movie was released. I'm hoping it will be released next year since it costs 3 million $ to make. Have you had any luck on Broadjam or on other sites? I'm only on Broadjam. I was on Spotify and a few others but nothing materialized. I think I'll just stay with Broadjam. Anyway, let's stay in touch. Maybe a group of us could meet for a beer and we can drown our troubles together.

Hey Dan - I know what you mean about "under consideration" - crossing the fingers - you do that for too long and your fingers start to go kind of numb, eh? But if you do it for the joy of creation, well it's worth it anyway just for that. I hope the Christmas movie ends up getting released. I think a lot of stuff got put on hold from the last crazy period we've all had to endure. And hopefully things are opening up again. I'm on BJ and also Spotify (where I am regularly reminded how few listeners ever come) but you know, you keep going anyways. I started my licensing "career" with a kind of a bang, made good money with a couple good placements, and then phhhht nada - oh well, I still keep pitching and I don't really expect placements but it sure would be nice. I think that's why I like posting stuff here on BJ because you get the feeling that at least some people are listening, and even enjoying. And there's sooo much good music here. Well, keep it up friend, because your stuff is amazing. Truly. - diane

Randall, at present I'm on 3 or 4 Under Considers and I also haven't received any correspondence. After the never released movie, "Letters at Christmas," I'm getting a bit jaded vis a-vis Broadjam. Of course, I hope I'm wrong but I'm certainly not getting excited when I'm Under Consideration. Nevertheless, I hope Frostbite works out.

Thx Daniel. I hear you. It makes me wonder about BJ providers and what's going on. I was so happy to hear yours getting on that movie- happy for you and happy that it means it is possible to have that happen from BJ. But now I just don't know. I did get on a radio rotation on KPEO radio. It's online radio but international. They played 3 of my songs today and they say I remain in the rotation for random plays. That was not from BJ though. From another Avenue.
