Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: It is true that there is often confusion between exclusive licensing, regular licensing, and other forms of licensing.

These misunderstandings can lead to legal issues and miscommunications between parties, underscoring the importance of having a clear understanding of music licensing agreements and copyright laws.
