Did you know a song can rack up thousands of streams on Spotify and Apple Music while the rights holders receive zero dollars in payouts?
In this episode of the Educational Vault, we uncover how missing, mismatched, or broken song metadata can quietly drain independent music royalties.
We break down the critical difference between master recording codes (ISRC) and composition codes (ISWC), explain why linking these codes remains one of the music industry’s biggest unresolved challenges, and show you how to audit your catalog to identify metadata problems and stop potential revenue leaks.
