Sa Music Organizations

[thubab2]

Hey all,

I am a composer and producer. I work with a few artists and will work with more. Currently all my music goes through another publishing company.
I am in the process of getting legalities right for my record/publishing label, and i got a few questions.

1. Do I have to register a record company and a publishing company totally separately, or can one trade under the other as "trading as". Or can I run a record label and publishing house under one name?

2. What bodies do I have to register with for all my different royalties. Do they overlap with each other? And what are their specific functions. I am currently in the process of accreditation with SAMRO and NORM.

-Do i need to register with SARRAL (I know they are currently in legal issues, who has/will replace(d) them?)?
-Do I need to register with AIRCO/SAMPRA?
-Do i need to register with RISA?
