I was playing with the CD burning ability of Vegas 3.0 tonight (gonna upgrade to 4 very soon), when I came across the ability to add the ISRC code to each track of a DAO burn. One thing led to another, and I ended up at their site:
http://www.ifpi.org/isrc/
RIAA is the "agency" for ISRC in the USA.
It looks like CDBaby can assign ISRC codes for artists:

So I'm wondering...
1) Is it up to the artist to provide the mastering engineer with the ISRC code for each track?
2) Can a mastering engineer assign codes on behalf of the artist? (I don't think so, since the engineer is probably not the copyright holder...but maybe?)
3) Should a mastering engineer register with RIAA for the sake of being able to assign codes (like CDBaby seems to have)?
How are are you long time mastering engineers handling this?
