Jody, It's not so much the change in the client's/networks reluctance to use non-exclusive tracks. So far ABC is the only one that shows reluctance (same as last year). It’s more that some libraries want to broaden their appeal to selective clients, thus, having both non-exclusive and exclusive catalogs. I think one factor in this move is the overabundance of music. Libraries will become more and more selective in what they place in their catalogs. Many libraries have their in-house composers that get the premium jobs (themes, high paying commercials, etc.), thus, the outside composers only get leftovers. Not much incentive for going 100% exclusive. I’ll continue to use both models. Best, John
