Copyright for Podcasting

Hi everybody! Just joined today - very excited about getting down to business and getting serious about producing!



But on another track - this has been on my mind for a little while now - this might be a good place to ask this question. What sort of licensing payments will I have to do to start a music podcast for iTunes? Presumably I will need a podcasting license and have to pay royalties for each artist I play, but I really cannot find any solid information on it on the internet.



Just thought I’d see if anyone here knows while I say hi, else I suppose I’ll have to do some emailing to music licensing boards?



Thanks in advance!

best bet is to just get permission from the labels of the tracks your playing… or wing it.



unless your podcast becomes massive no one will really mind.
