“Artists today have many more options then they had years ago. The goal for any artist or producer is to create a large body of compositions and then register them and exploit them for the myrid of uses that are out there. These uses include Game Scores, Movies, TV shows, and other performance based uses. The goal for any composer today should be centered around exclusive compositions and creating a library of stock compositions that can be licensed to various end users.
