I asked Stuart Price, intellectual property lawyer and Managing Director of Birmingham’s Young & Lee Solicitors for his top 5 tips for independent music business. These are some pretty good guidelines that might end up saving you thousands one day.

Good advice indeed.
A side question: I see you’ve gone from using bliptv to vimeo. Any particular reason?
Andrew,
Very nice.
I left my band over some of the issues that Solicitor Price outlined. The producer who wanted to sign us, to a crappy production deal by the way, wanted complete control and ownership of our copyrights. I held my ground as my band mates sought to acquiesce. I hit the bricks. Never looking back and with no regrets.
I hope others have the courage to do the same.
Cheers,
Anthony
Very nice post, and thanks be to Stuart Price for his willingness to help other artists. Good on ya, la!
Re: Felix’s question of switching your video hosting, why did you decide on Vimeo over YouTube or Blip, Andrew?
great article – points stored in memory for later use!
This write-up is definitely very helpful. I value the effort you used publishing this write-up. I would like to become a nurse, do you have any strategy where I could get details about nurse incomes, job types and what is the basis. Any thought where I could get this details?
