| YOU SHOULD OBTAIN ISRC CODES BEFORE MASTERING YOUR MUSIC - the mastering engineer can then encode your PMCD. |
| The ISRC is a unique international
identifier for tracks on sound and music-video recordings. Comprised of
a 12 character alpha-numeric code, the ISRC functions as a digital “fingerprint”

track and not the carrier of the track (CD, cassette). In addition, the
ISRC remains allocated to a track regardless of changes in ownership.
