Each time a new music catalogue is added on the platform, ANote Music together with the original right holders (artist, record label, publisher,...) will list it as an auction. You can place bids to acquire fractional shares from those music catalogues and get access to the future royalty streams, commission-free. Once the auction ends, if your bids are successful, shares will be exchanged from the original owners and get allocated to your portfolio, giving you the right to receive the corresponding share of royalty payments.
