In May 2017, the Canadian Musical Reproduction Rights Agency (CMRRA) announced its acquisition by a behemoth American counterpart, SoundExchange. Last year, Re:Sound and Connect Music Licensing streamlined their businesses, and SOCAN is also shaking things up with recent acquisitions to stay ahead of the modern curve.
How does it all affect indie companies, artists, creators and copyright holders in general? What channels are your royalties going through now, and how does this changing landscape affect your livelihood when it comes to various streams of royalty collection?
Prep your questions and get the nitty-gritty from the organizations that make your rights their business!
This crucially important session will be streamed for our colleagues around the country who may not be able to attend in person. Details to come!
Panelists:
CAROLINE RIOUX - President, CMRRA
IAN MACKAY - President, Re:Sound
JEFF KING - COO, SOCAN
ERIC ALPER - Publicist, Eric Alper PR (Moderator)
