NEW YORK, March 8 /PRNewswire/ -- RightsFlow, a leading provider of bulk mechanical licensing and royalty services, today announced a deal to provide global society reporting services for Beatport, the leading international dance music digital retailer.

This deal signifies a major step forward in our global reporting services, and will enable Beatport to focus on customer needs, rather than the resource-heavy process of data reporting."
