What is music metadata?

Metadata refers to the pertinent information associated with a song or album, including the title, performing artist, producer, songwriters, artwork and more.

Why does it matter?

Accurate metadata facilitates accurate reporting and royalty payments. Incomplete metadata leads to undercounting and missed royalties. According to the Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC), incomplete metadata can cost artists over $100 million per year.

Luminate’s Data Management technology analyzes catalogs to find unclaimed works, which maximizes revenue collections and forecasting.
