- Book Synopsis
- A copyright grants the authors of a creative work certain exclusive rights in their creation. The scope of copyright in music depends on the type of work at issue and the particular use made of the work. U.S. law has explicitly recognized copyright in musical works-compositions by songwriters and lyricists-since the early 19th century. Songwriters and recording artists are generally entitled to receive compensation for: 1. Reproductions, distributions, and public performances of the notes and lyrics they create (the musical works), as well as 2. Reproductions, distributions, and certain digital public performances of the recorded sound of their voices combined with instruments (the sound recordings). The amount they receive, as well as their control over their music, depends on market forces, contracts between various private-sector entities, and laws governing copyright and competition policy. Who pays whom, and who can sue whom for copyright infringement, depends in part on the mode of listening to music. This book delves into the intricate landscape of music licensing and copyright law over the past century. Each chapter explores different facets of the music industry and the legal frameworks that shape it.
