Legal Question in Intellectual Property in California
Mechanical Licensing
I am sending out a Demo CD to a few record labels, and one of the songs is a cover song. Should I obtain a mechanical license before sending it out, or wait until I know wheter or not it will be published?

You can wait. Mechanical Licenses are paid on units sold.
