David's guy, Chuks, is someone who he found on freelancer.com. This site is a useful tool for different categories, not just for accounting and data entry. You put up a project that you need done, and potential works "bid" on them on how much they are willing to accept for the work. You have the choice to set how much you're willing to pay, and also choosing which person you want to do the job - it's not based on the highest/lowest offer. It can be based on their rating (stars), resume, price, etc.
From yesterday's work, there were about 40 songs that didn't have any information on who owned what, who the artist was, or anything. Skimming the royalty receipts don't help because these songs are the ones played internationally and are lacking an ID to search on the website. Speaking of websites, Universal Music Group gives the run around on their royalties collection site. Very barebones, and only useful if you are lacking a payment and need to contact them. ASCAP's not bad, but I think they can expand their search options (advanced features, etc.).
