   Hello ASCAP.   
      
   Although I was informed that ASCAP is not affiliated with the 5,000,000+   
   strong members of https://reverbnation.com of which imho is the leading artist   
   and musician website and people on the internet anywhere in the free world   
   including US, Europe, Asia,    
   Africa & Oceania too.   
      
   In any event, my brand new release "Outshining The Sun" has registrations   
   through Nielsen Soundscan, as a digital release and for each of the 27 songs.    
   Already in a short two weeks, 500+ streams from https://reverbna   
   ion.com/williammahler  As of today,    
   my release is at every major distributor on the internet, including Spotify,   
   Apple Music, Goole Music, 7 Digital, Ultimate China, Deezer and almost 2 dozen   
   other massive distributors.  How do I make this good with ASCAP so I am   
   actually paid for    
   royalties other than sales that ReverbNation, in good faith has proven to pay   
   before?  Which role does ASCAP play in streaming media, downloads and sales in   
   regards to that I've told you in this email?   
      
   Honestly, you are the biggest organized behemoth of society as if you are a   
   massive mountain and I am but a grain of sand.   
      
   how can it be my music is instantly recognized by total strangers as far away   
   as Raleigh, North Carolina simply by performing 3 seconds of the opening notes   
   to "Regardless" when it originated on Cape Cod with only a handful of   
   downloads in over a year?   
      
   How can songs like "Act Of Mercy" be covered and planned for release by Bruce   
   Springsteen on his Tracks 2 project?   
      
   How can "Prelude To September 11, 2001 - Leonda (I'm Coming Home) be covered   
   by solo artist and drummer for Queen, Roger Taylor.   
      
   How can "Regardless" be performed by The Eagles?   
      
   All that has already happened but the mountain you are has not recognized the   
   feats of this little pebble.   
      
   Why?   
      
   One song, not on the internet since 2016, "Words Called Love" a demo with only   
   less than 20 downloads worldwide was instantly known by a passerby as I played   
   the opening notes on a public piano in Copley Square of Boston in front of the   
   Boston Public    
   Library.   
      
   Yet, not one penny has come from ASCAP but a measly 51 cents at one time and   
   now less than $20 is due me.   
      
   What are we missing, what am I doing wrong?   
      
   How do you be accountable for the music I am getting distributed worldwide   
   through places I've listed?   
      
   What is stopping you from being associated with, affilliated with ReverbNation   
   and how come it hasn't happened already?   
      
   I make no apology in thinking you are earning billions from little pebbles   
   like me and we see less than bread crumbs.   
      
   Am I wrong?   
      
   Please convince me I am wrong.   
      
   Call my phone and talk to me or find me to chat with ih facebook or zoom   
   meeting,
