Can you register music to BeatStars publishing and distribute music to streaming platforms via Soundrop simultaneously?

Yes, you can register your music with BeatStars Publishing and distribute it to streaming platforms via Soundrop simultaneously. These two services handle different aspects of your music career:

• BeatStars Publishing: This service focuses on collecting publishing royalties, including performance and mechanical royalties, through its partnership with Sony Music Publishing. You can register your tracks on BeatStars Publishing to ensure royalty collection from global PROs and societies. The registration process involves providing detailed information about your tracks, collaborators, and splits.
• Soundrop: This is a music distribution platform that enables you to release your music on major streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music. It also supports cover song licensing and provides transparent royalty reports. Soundrop handles the distribution side but does not manage publishing royalties.

Using both services together allows you to distribute your music widely while ensuring you collect all applicable royalties. There is no conflict between these platforms since they serve complementary purposes.
