The Copyright Act grants an author theright to terminate a grant of right thirty fiveyears after a grant of a transfer or license.Because the termination right becameeffective in 1978, countless authors areexpected to regain full rights to theircopyrights beginning in 2013. Forrecording artists who are seeking toterminate their transfers of their recordingsthere is uncertainty and apprehensionover whether they have the right to do so.Record companies have maintained thatthe termination right is unavailable torecording artists because soundrecordings qualify as "works for hire," anargument that is rejected by recordingartists and one that is yet to be resolved.This program discusses termination rightsin sound recordings and the legal issueslikely to arise for the interested parties. Itfeatures four speakers: one taking theposition favored by recording artists, onetaking the position favored by recordcompanies, one neutral academic, andone addressing valuation issues.Item no. : FC11200318Format : CD-ROM (Win)Duration : 90 minutesCopyright : 2012Price : USD 150.00NEW MUSIC LICENSINGDEALS: WHAT EVERYLAWYER NEEDS TO KNOWBy Jeff Brabec, Todd BrabecRepresenting music creators in the digitalage can be a complex mission for musicpublishers and record labels mainlybecause ofthe new business models that useand exploit the music that is beingcreated daily,the court decisions that are rewritingthe traditional ways of licensing,the voluntary negotiations that arechanging the long standing practices,andthe legislation and Copyright Boardsthat are setting new rates, licensingstructures, and collection entities.No matter who you are in the business ofmusic - ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, the HarryFox Agency, SoundExchange, hitsongwriters, film, television, and videogame composers; producers, recordingartists, music publishers, and record labels- new media music licensing deals affectsyou.This program covers:How rates are being set and bywhom?How licenses are negotiated andstructured?How much money is being made?How foreign countries handle theseareas?
