The problem

Songs get stolen. More than you think. Protect them BEFORE ownership issues arise.

Copyright begins when original work is first fixed into tangible form. But when ownership is disputed, high-quality, independent, dated records documenting what you wrote and when you wrote it become critical.

FAQ

Quick answers.

1. Do I get paperwork?

Absolutely. Your Registration Affidavit is emailed immediately after you send us your songs. You are also directed to an additional online copy, which you can print or save.

2. Are my songs really copyrighted?

Yes. As long as your material is original, copyright protection attaches by law as soon as it is first put into tangible form. We memorialize those key elements for you. For more info, click here.

3. How can I contact you?

Click the Contact Us link at the bottom of the page, or click here. Since we deal with legal issues, support is handled by email so everything can be documented.

4. Are my songs published online?

No. We do not publish your actual songs. The public registry shows critical registration data such as composers, titles, dates and registration numbers.

5. What formats can I upload?

Accepted formats are listed here. If yours is not listed, use a free online converter to create an accepted format such as MP3.

6. I have one song. How much does that cost?

The $29.95 fee buys one Affidavit, which can hold up to 4 song files submitted together.

7. If I don't renew my annual plan, do my songs stay registered?

Yes. Renewing only affects registering new songs. Songs already registered remain in the archives.

8. Can I register lyrics only?

Yes. Just leave the “music by” box blank on the forms.

9. Can I mail in my songs instead of uploading?

Yes, for the $29.95 plan. Click here for instructions. No, for the $99.95 Prime Plan (must use the online uploader).

10. I am having trouble paying, registering, or uploading.
