Music Copyright - How to protect your music from being ripped off and used without permission


Musician recording music

As a musician, you pour your heart and soul into every note, every lyric, and every beat. The hours of creativity, the sleepless nights perfecting that sound—it's all part of your journey. But what happens when your hard work is stolen, and someone else claims it as their own? The frustration and heartbreak are all too real.


The Struggle is Real

In today's digital age, sharing your music with the world is easier than ever. But with this convenience comes the risk of having your work ripped off. Whether it's unauthorized use, plagiarism, or outright theft, these issues can derail your career and crush your creative spirit. You shouldn't have to choose between sharing your passion and protecting your art.

Meet Ella Janes

When singer and songwriter Ella Janes finishes recording a new music track, she burns the audio file to a CD, prints a copy of the lyrics, and mails both items to herself in a package. She doesn’t do this to fill time or indulge a 2000s-era pastime — she does it to protect her intellectual property.

Ella's been advised to follow this process as a way to prove that she created a song on a particular date as prior art. If we can notarize important documents like deeds and passport applications, why not have a process for establishing the authenticity and origins of digital assets like audio files? 

Fortunately, there's a solution designed specifically for musicians like you.
