ISRCs are codes that can be written on your CD. Each song has it's own code. You get them from PPL,
then give them to me & they'll be encoded into the CD. You won't be charged anything by either me or PPL.
Having the codes means that automated radio stations etc. log when they play a track of yours & you get paid.
From The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) website:
The ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) is the international identification system for sound recordings and music videorecordings. Each ISRC is a unique and permanent identifier for a specific recording which can be permanently encoded into a product as its digital fingerprint. Encoded ISRC provide the means to automatically identify recordings for royalty payments.
The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry recommends that all music producers use ISRC.
