The music industry has long struggled with data sharing, maintaining proprietary silos of information that often do not communicate with each other. While progress has been made with the introduction of new metadata standards and cleaning services, certain pressing issues remain. Often, recording and publishing data are written using different, incompatible standards, and maintaining proprietary information remains a key advantage for many companies. There is a need to bridge these divides to ensure that labels, publishers, PROs, DSPs, and distributors all have access to the most consistent and up-to-date information at all times to ensure rights-holders are appropriately compensated. In this panel, representatives from across the music value chain will discuss the value behind organized and transparent metadata, and how they plan to work together to achieve this goal.
