Music and Rights
Register (ddex members). The Kin Score Market layer reads each provider in its market: who it integrates with, how deep those integrations go, and where the market publishes its own structure. Methodology.
Where this market publishes its structure
- DDEX current members, ddex.net/membership/current-members (names + charter/full/associate tier; identity via Wikidata P856, MusicBrainz url-rels) machine-readable
- DDEX implementation licensees / DPID register not machine-readable: licensee page 404; dpid.ddex.net is a login-gated registration form (2026-10-15)
- ISNI register not machine-readable: isni.org 403 (2026-10-15)
- IFPI member list not machine-readable: HTML names only, a trade body not a standard's participant list; not read
- MusicBrainz machine-readable, identity only (label official homepage), never a register
Own = declares at least one integration itself; covered = visible only because an aggregator, standards body, regulator or partner contract names it; distribution-only = listed only on cloud marketplaces it sells through, a channel reported beside, never counted as its own declared integrations; undeclared = nothing we can read, so no number; declares_compatibility = providers with a `compatible` shape vote, report only (kin, 2026-10-13): never counted as own, never in depth or position.

Leaders by position (provisional)
Provisional: grouped by position, depth compared within a position only. Distribution (cloud marketplaces) and iPaaS bridges are counted beside position, never inside it. Unknown-builder listings are left out of position shares and counted here.
