Some interesting info for you, if your music is with APRA.
ASCAP is the rights organization in the US. Their bill of rights state.
-We have the right to license our works and control the ways in which they are used.
-We have the right to choose when and where our creative works may be used for free.
Contact APRA and ask them why these freedoms that are available to artists in the US are not available to artists in Australia.
Do you want a real business of music that is able compete with the system in the US? Do you want your content to allways be priced at the same price as large bands like the red hot chilly pepars? Why do you have no choice? is the union of APRA positive for your music when every home has an internet connection and the internet is a copy machine? Did you write your songs to be heard or to get a royalty? Don't you need the right to make your work free when the publishers reject it? Why do US composers and songwriters demand these rights?
Australian artists can join and transfer to ASCAP. You just have to send in a paper application form, rather than join online. My thoughts are that you would be able to do more with tunes, with these rights within your community than the ones you have with APRA.
