What is the purpose of ascap bmi and sesac?

ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC are three performing rights organizations (PROs) in the United States that are responsible for collecting and distributing royalties to songwriters, composers, and music publishers when their music is performed publicly.

The purpose of these organizations is to ensure that music creators are fairly compensated for the use of their work. They collect fees from venues and businesses that play music, such as radio stations, bars, restaurants, and concert venues, and distribute those fees as royalties to the creators of the music.

ASCAP (the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers), BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.), and SESAC (Society of European Stage Authors and Composers) each represent a large catalog of music and provide a platform for music creators to register their works and receive compensation for their use.

In addition to collecting and distributing royalties, these organizations also provide educational resources, advocacy, and support for music creators to help protect their rights and further their careers in the music industry.
