Title: Giving Credit to Writers, Producers, Engineers
Post by: gm33 on September 15, 2012, 06:49:53 PM
Came across this on Facebook. Thought it was a pretty worthy cause.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-campaign-to-credit-performers-producers-and-engineers-on-all-online-music-sevices/367375686629316

About
CREDIT IS DUE! This campaign is to get iTunes, Pandora, similar music services to give credit to Performers, Producers Songwriters, and Engineers. 'Like' this page to show public support for this long overdue issue!

Mission
The goal is to get credits for Performers, Engineers, Songwriters and Producers listed on all songs in ALL music services (like iTunes, Pandora, etc). Users should be able to easily see who created and performed this music while listening so they can discover other music these artists have helped create. The lack of credits also affects ability of music creators to get work. Show your support by 'liking' this page so we can finally make this happen!
Description

This campaign is to get iTunes, Pandora, and other music services to recognize that crediting performers, producers, songwriters and engineers is very much needed. This is good for all, including music fans and the music business.

This is a great idea. I signed a petition about this a little while ago.

Me too, I really want to have all the credits also when buying music digitally.
