How to get a registered barcode?

bluevoice · 15-05-2010 10:06PM #1

So...

I'm in the final week of recording my debut CD - ready for the mixing to begin, then onto mastering and duplication - and I'm dreaming big.

I'm writing my letters to join IMRO, I know I'll need an IRSC code (PPI didn't answer my 3 emails, so I'm going to call them tomorrow, and hopefully get somewhere) - and I know that I'll need my very own registered barcode.

Only problem is - I'm not sure how to go about that. I googled it and found a site that'll sell me one - but a friend who has done this before said that's not needed, I can make up my own...then I found a site that'll make me one for free...but if I go the do-it-myself- route, will that be official and internationally recognized and all that?

Anyone who has done this before, please advise me, as I am wrecking my head over this!

Thanks!

I used these guys before. Quick and straight forward.
