TWC gets all their music from BMI.
But aren't there some TWC artists that don't have a BMI account?
There are also some artists that send their music directly to TWC.
My super-awesome website!

alright, let's settle some rumors shall we?

No, TWC DOES NOT get their music from BMI in any way. They get their music directly from the artists, who consequently happen to be members of BMI. Secondly, BMI does not retitle the songs. The artists do that.

Right, TWC gets the music from the artists, then if they have BMI, TWC licenses them there.

No, they have nothing at all to do with BMI. :no:

And no, TWC doesn't make any money.

No I haven't, though I'd love to go there. What does that have to do with anything though?  :unsure:

Just because I know alot about TWC doesn't mean I've been there. Many of us are quite smart about TWC stuff, and I'm willing to bet that most of us have never set foot on TWC property.

Some of them know quite a bit. The problem, though, is that things are very tight at TWC, so when you go there there's not much chance to explore things and learn about things.

I'm hoping that I'll get to see another STAR before they're all upgraded.

why dont you go to Provo, UT out of Salt Lake City? They have an XL or go to Taos, NM to see their 4000.
