Preface The National Music Publishers’ Association, Inc. is pleased to present its twelfth annual International Survey of Music Publishing Revenues. This report offers publishing income from 46 territories for the year 2001. Following a 6.7% increase in 2000, total global publishing revenues declined in 2001 by 4% to $6.6 billion. Based on flat exchange rates,when comparisons are made between 2000 and 2001, publishing revenues decreased by 8% in 2001 to just under $7.5 billion. Continuing to lead the way was the performance-based revenue sector, which posted a 3.2% gain to nearly $3.18 billion.While global income from the live performance and the public performance of recorded music fell by slightly more than 1%, revenues from the use of music on television and on radio rose by 5.7% and 7.5%, respectively. Meanwhile, reproduction-based income decreased by 11.6% to $2.42 billion.The declines were fueled by losses in phono-mechanicals (down 13.1%) and synchronization revenue (down 7.6%). As the global music market continues to evolve, the performance of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies remains an important yardstick. For that reason, we are again including territory income totals in European Currency Units (ECU). Reasons for the losses are varied: fewer territories participated in this year’s report,and 2000’s totals were impacted NMPA INTERNATIONAL SURVEY TWELTH EDITION PREFACE by an extraordinary gain from a successful lawsuit filed by the Harry Fox Agency against Sony and MP3. However, it must be added that the worldwide declines suffered by the recording industry over the past few years have had a significant impact on publishing revenues as well. Piracy has continued to spread like wildfire throughout the global recording industry, with many key territories watching their legitimate CD sales suffer serious declines in the face of increased unauthorized downloading and CD burning. Economic uncertainty also affected much of the world in 2001, and continues to this day.Without a base of consumer confidence,the worldwide music industry will likely continue to struggle in future months.In addition,ongoing economic and intellectual property protection troubles in such developing regions as Latin America and Southeast Asia are continuing to be felt on a global basis. However, some encouraging measures are being taken around the world, as outlined in portions of this report’s “International Year In Review”and “NMPA and the Music Publishing Industry”sections.Through lobbying efforts,increased law enforcement,and cooperation with the major players in cyberspace,it seems likely that solutions to various problems can be achieved. Lawmakers are still learning about the potential pitfalls in this area, and NMPA and other copyrightdirected associations have pledged to work with them to find adequate resolutions. 2
The authorized availability of music on the Internet will be a victory for copyright owners, Internet services, and consumers alike.Achieving that goal is of vital importance to the entire global music business. In order to help our readers gain insight into the international dimensions of the music publishing industry,we highlight a particular territory in each edition of the Survey.In this volume,we take a look at Mexico,which currently ranks nineteenth in global publishing revenues. The NMPA Survey continues to gain interest and respect throughout the domestic and international music and intellectual property communities.We are, as always, grateful to all those organizations in participating territories for their continued support, and encourage all those who do not yet do so to join with us in presenting their regional information on this vital area of the global music industry.
