The composition is the source.
Publishing may be described as the action of creating monetary value from a composition.
"It's about royalties", says former personal assistant of a former Columbia EMI managing director in Athens.
No matter who sings, in which advertisement, in which film, played on the radio, cover version etc a check should go to the publisher and then to the composer.
For example the headquarters of EMI were asking every month a report from Columbia EMI Athens on how many Beatles records were sold in Greece.
