What is the value of having an ISNI?

Having identifiers for artists, recordings, and musical works is crucial for several reasons:
  1. Uniqueness: Identifiers ensure that each artist, recording, and musical work has a unique and distinguishable reference. This helps avoid confusion and ensures accurate attribution.
  1. Tracking and Management: With identifiers, it becomes easier to track and manage the vast amount of creative content produced. It facilitates efficient cataloging, organization, and retrieval of information
  1. Rights Management: Identifiers play a vital role in managing copyright and other intellectual property rights associated with artistic works. They enable proper licensing, royalty distribution, and copyright enforcement.
  1. Global Standardization: Adopting standardized identifiers ensures consistency and compatibility on a global scale. It promotes collaboration and simplifies processes across international borders, benefiting artists, industry professionals, and consumers alike.
