The record label industry consists of various roles like label managers, A&R representatives, studio engineers, and producers who are usually employed by labels. Record deals can be development deals where an act receives studio time and a producer, or exclusive recording deals where an act produces a number of albums for the label. Record contracts specify clauses around exclusivity, royalties, deductions, advances, licensing, and termination. Major labels have around 80% of the market share while independents have 20%. Organizations like IFPI, RIAA, and BIEM represent the industry globally.
