How do I get a barcode for my music?
Best answer:
Barcodes are assigned from only ONE official place — the Uniform Code Council. They issue barcodes to everyone who intends to sell product(s). The barcode is ASSIGNED by the UCC, from a central database, so that all uniform scanners at stores, etc., can “read” the information on the barcode, and report it to whomever the information is relevant.
For example, SoundScan monitors albums sold retail, and that defines the charts, placements, awards, etc., or at least is an influential part of the mix. Any monies owed or earned can be tracked through this universal system. It is a world-wide, accepted identifier for you AND YOUR COMPANY.
