Did you know 67% of songwriters say that “lack of meaningful streaming income” is their biggest challenge?
For the first time ever, MIDiA has conducted extensive research to understand the songwriters of today. This landmark report draws on MIDiA’s first-ever survey of more than 300 songwriters to understand their income distribution, evolving needs and challenges, and how the publishing industry can better serve them. We hope that this report will benefit not just songwriters and publishers but the music industry as a whole.
