The 3 main types of music publishing agreements are: Publishing Administration Agreement. Co-Publishing Agreement. Buy-Out Agreement or a Full Publishing Agreement.
A Publishing or Song-writing Agreement is the document by which a songwriter assigns the copyright in his compositions to a music publisher in exchange for royalties and, in appropriate cases, an advance against those royalties.
In a 75/25 co-pub deal the writer keeps 100% of the song writer's share, and 50% of the publisher's share, which is 75% of the entire copyrights. The remaining 25% is assigned to the publisher.
A partnership deal in which a songwriter contracts with a publishing administrator. In this arrangement, the songwriter keeps 100 percent ownership of the copyright and pays an administrative fee to the publisher/administrator.
What is an administrative deal? A music publishing administration agreement (or admin deal) traditionally allows a songwriter/creator to retain full ownership of their composition.
