Michael con Sony -

Valor del catálogo

ATV Music Publishing no sólo tiene los temas de los Beatles sino que está compuesto por unas 4.000 canciones. Se estima que el catálogo actualmente genera más de 80 millones de dólares al año y que sólo los temas de los Beatles generan de 30 a 45 millones anuales. En 1995 su valor se estimaba entre los 500 millones y el billón de dólares.


Curiosidades

Yesterday, tema de Paul, por ejemplo, aparece en los créditos como tema de "Lennon-McCartney". Cada vez que la versión original suena en una radio, se incluye en un disco, película, etc., una cantidad de dinero va a parar a manos de los dueños de la grabación original (EMI), otra parte al editor (Michael Jackson-ATV/Sony), otra al intérprete (Paul como guitarrista, los violinistas no ganan nada pues lo hicieron bajo contrato), y una parte a los autores: John y Paul, a pesar de que John no tuvo nada que ver con Yesterday.

El editor es quien maneja el porcentaje de ganancia de los escritores. Michael Jackson, hace un tiempo, aumentó el porcentaje de John, pero dejó el de Paul igual al de 1965. Así que John, bueno, Yoko, gana más por Yesterday que el mismo Paul, y cada vez que Paul la canta, debe pagarle a Jackson y a Yoko. Cuando lo hace en vivo, paga un porcentaje de la taquilla.

Como dije antes, imprimir la letra de estos temas también reporta beneficios, por ejemplo, cuando Paul McCartney quiso imprimir la letra de "Eleanor Rigby" y otros temas de los Beatles en el programa de la gira mundial de 1989, descubrió que tenía que pagar derechos a Michael Jackson. También cobra dinero cada vez que suena un tema del catálogo en una jukebox, o se pone en la radio o alguien hace una versión, teniendo en cuenta que los Beatles son el grupo más versionado de la historia. Una buena y extraña fuente de ingresos es la música de los ascensores. En USA algunos llevan versiones instrumentales de estos temas y al estar continuamente sonando...
