About

‘Desk-Top Song Publishing’ for Songwriters A Reality.

Successful Songwriters very often 'own' their own Songs and Copyrights by establishing their own Publishing Company. Once they are established, they no longer need to 'sell out' to the Big Publishers. But a Publishing Company is not cheap to set up and administer, especially when the Songwriter's songs aren't earning thousands every month in Royalties.

Until now, the only routes to go were to sign either a co-publishing agreement with an established Music Publisher, or to set up an official Publishing Company in the songwriter's country of residence.

The Internet now offers a viable and inexpensive alternative. Songwriters and Composers can now publish, copyright and showcase their work live using the intelLoc™ DeskTop Music Publishing Suite. This is accessible through a private, members-only website, www.intelLoc.com.

Using their intelLoc™ WorkSpace, registered users can now upload their songs or demos as .mp3 or .wav files. The lyrics can be added into the member's personal workspace and the work can then be published in the user's own Publishing Facility. The system automatically Copyrights the song at the very instant the song is published, in accordance with International Copyright Law, storing the material in a secure server based in Washington DC. The copyright is effective in more than 160 countries.

The benefits to members are extensive. Once a member joins intelLoc™, Lifetime Membership is included. The Songwriter retains 100% ownership of his/her songs and rights.

Members begin by choosing the name of their Online, Virtual 'Publishing Company'. The member's own intelLoc™ Suite is customized according to his/her instructions. This can be edited at any time, and a writer can use multiple pseudonyms too.

The system allows member to 'Showcase' his/her songs on-line. The Showcase itself is a webpage that the Songwriter can send to a listener who can hear the track by simply clicking on a link. The lyrics are displayed on the listener's monitor at the same time.

All intelLoc™ members have their songs stored in their private 'Copyright Vault' for a minimum of 5 years. Each separate work is allocated an intelLoc™ Verification Number - a 'Digital Fingerprint' that's 100% unique to that particular song. These 'copyrights' are independently Recorded in the intelLoc™ DESCS Facility.

Every time a new song is published, the system issues an intelLoc™ Publication and Copyright Certificate in A4 form by Email. All Copyrights are 'Third Party Witnessed' by the intelLoc™ Administrator and independently recorded down to the exact second.

In the event of a member's material being plagiarized or used without consent, the member can request documented evidence of the existence of their copyright at the time it was actually recorded.

An added benefit is that members achieve higher credibility by sending listeners to a professional, on-line website where they can simply click, listen and see the lyrics, rather than just sending a file or a song.

As long as they choose to remain a member, intelLoc™ users also benefit by having their songs and music securely stored in intelLoc™'s Washington DC secure storage facility. In the event of a computer meltdown or other data-loss disaster, all the member's songs, music, publications and copyrights are fully backed up.

A new feature is that members can also upload and copyright album cover designs, logos, publicity pictures, band photos, or any artwork and copyright them into their copyright Vault too. Live, manned Email support is available 24/7.

The intelLoc™ DeskTop Music Publishing and Copyright Suite will create the member's own 'Virtual' Music Publishing Company' online, for under $100 (US) and less than $2.50 a week. And when the time comes to form an official Limited Liability Company, (whether it's a Co. Ltd, LLC, Inc or SL) users can quickly, simply use all the features in their personal intelLoc™ Music Publishing and Copyright Suite in their Music Publishing Business.

Set-up time is around 5 minutes and the system is suitable for all PC or Mac users. No special computer skills are required.
