I ended up signing as well. Though only for non-exclusive tracks I have in other libraries. Why…? After corresponding with Getty through several emails, I was informed this wouldn't affect my royalties that I’ve been getting from Pump Audio over the years. Pump Audio will still pursue royalties where applicable as usual. The “no royalty” part is for new market clients - that probably wouldn’t have turn in cue sheets anyway (I’m thinking mainly Internet use). BTW, it’s estimated by TuneSat (digital fingerprinting company) that 80% of cue sheets aren’t turned in. There’s the real problem. No cue sheets mean no royalties. So even those “good” contracts we’ve signed in the past are only as good as the client’s integrity. John
