I have 20+ songs I want to send out to record companies but need to protect my ownership. How do I go about it. I'm based in the UK.

This is a good place to start:

http://www.vocalist.org.uk/copyright_royalties.html

It had everything I needed to know when I was signed up. At least you know what questions to ask etc.

For the UK - try this!

Most labels will not accept unsolicited submissions. They don't listen to them, ever. Some may return them to you, many will just throw them away.

Of course you should protect your copyright.
