Almost every business interaction in music revolves around the licence and service contracts and these follow basic rules of thumb.
  - recording deals
  - artist deals
  - masters' agreements
  - compilation licensing
  - production agreements
  - synchronisation agreements
  - remix deals

"Non payment" and other breeches of contract are all too common in our business but the law is there to protect you. If you understand music law well enough, you can get many things done with a few simply written and elegant letters without needing to resort to lawyers.
