Ski Movie Soundtrack Question

Ski Movies are where I get most of my good music these days. I found a cool program that rips DVD audio into MP3 and I throw it in my iPod.

Now, does anybody have an idea how much companies like MSP/TGR pay for music rights? TGR always has 1 metallica song and I'm sure Metallica songs aren't cheap. Seth Morrison chronicles had a bunch of big bands: Alice n Chains, Kanye(sp?) West, Sean Paul... Just wondering how they afford it...

 
pbp dont get music rights... neither does c dizzle productions, we go to a download site like kazaa and ask em if we can use them for music, that is all the big guys do!

 
yea right^....

TGR is friends with Metallica so they get a song every year for free. There was a small article about it in one of the mags earlier this year.

For an average song that isn't huge you'd likely be looking at about 200 American for national (not international) release assuming you were making 1000 copies. It is obviously more if your making more. 100 of that gos to the writers and 100 to the publishers. DVD replication (or most duplication) facilities won't touch your DVD master without full copyright clearances or they will be held partially responsible.

cottonline: YOU ARE WRONG

I know of quite a few big selling mountain bike, skateboarding, and skiing DVD's that didn't get rights to their music. (they bragged about not getting caught) Distributors are not responsible for the producer not securing rights to music....as long as they get their money they don't care what you do.

Depending on the label/manager you can get some sick music for free. I'm doing a mountain bike film, 10,000 copies are going out and I got music by Rise Against, Midtown, and Modest Mouse for free because the bands and managers thought it was cool. There are no set rates, the manager for Le Tigre wanted 10,000 dollars (1 dollar per copy) so some people are unrealistic.

I'm sure there are plenty of people releasing stuff without getting clearance, but in this day and age, with RIAA raping 13 year old girls who share a Britney Spears song on Kazaa, anyone with any sense (especially the major production companies) would get clearance.

Have you ever seen a little kid slide back down the inrun of a kicker without going over? This is why parents shouldn't dump their kids off anywhere near the park...
 
from what ive heard not the huge companies but the smaller companies go thru a nother company and waht happens is that you give them 15 g or so(something like that) and you can take those songs and use them. more if your editing the songs. its not 15 g but around there.

we go through a company that handles our soundtrack, and we just pay from there. On average, a nothing special soundtrack will cost you 4,000 bucks (12 songs or so) and a good soundtrack will cost you 30,000 bucks plus. TGR had the most popular soundtrack, so im sure it was expensive. We go through the same company that TGR does for a large part of our liscensing.
