Hey Jake!

As a non-touring musician (strictly recording, no live shows), would you recommend finding a startup record label and working with them to get my album "out there"? Or just doing it myself?

My goal is to get my music used in films/tv shows/etc, but I really have no interest in touring.

Also am from Boston, spent much of my youth at the Paradise too!

Thanks sir

Followup question too:

What precautions do you take against piracy before you release a record?

I've seen too many horror stories about someone in another's work, claiming it as their own, and making MORE money than the actual artist (and refusing to take it down).
