Description

Production music is a vital part of the television industry. And the songs heard in the background, during scene transitions, and in opening and closing credits can generate significant royalty payments. This is your chance to collect royalties for a catalog of production music that has generated $9,042 in the last four quarters.

This 454-track catalog's earnings are led by placements on the E! network's smash hit reality series Keeping Up with the Kardashians — 16 of these tracks have appeared in 29 episodes of the show. When you look at the raw financial data, you'll notice that Kardashians has been a consistent source of revenue, generating royalties for this catalog in every quarter since Q4 2014.

Many of the tracks in this catalog are available in the NBCUniversal database, which allows NBCUniversal to use the tracks in any of its future programming. Since Q4 2014 more than 30 different TV shows, including E!'s Total Divas, have used tracks from this catalog. And when these tracks are used in new shows, you'll earn new royalties. In fact, the catalog has recently seen placements in new shows like Bravo's Timber Creek Lodge and E!'s So Cosmo. Royalties for performances of those shows have not yet been paid, so you'll be the first to collect them!

Bid now to earn money every time an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, or any other show, uses a song from this catalog and airs on television.
