What you should know about BMI, from a
members’ standpoint:
- BMI’s books are closed to the public but also
contends that although it is a corporation, it acts in a non-profit practice.
- BMI has offices in Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, Miami,
and London.
- BMI was founded by Radio Broadcasters not by Writers or
Publishers.
- Both ASCAP and BMI offer news about the industry, member
updates, and events. Both also offer apparel and gifts from an online catalog.
- BMI’s website is difficult to navigate in the sense
that information takes a long surf to find. But once you get to ABOUT BMI and click on FAQ
you will find very useful help.
