MAKING MONEY FROM MUSIC COPYRIGHT IN 2022

How to make sure your artists aren’t missing out on royalties

Whenever artists write songs or record tracks they create copyrights. And those copyrights can generate revenue. We provide a user-friendly guide to copyright: what it is, how it works, how it makes money and how managers can ensure their clients properly manage, monetise and enforce their rights. We’ll also explain what PRS, PPL and MCPS do – and why getting copyright data right can be the difference between being paid and seeing nothing from your plays, syncs and streams.

Questions answered include:

– What kind of creativity does copyright protect?

– What kind of control does copyright provide?

– Who owns your artist’s copyrights?

– How does copyright make money?

– What is stopping your artist’s getting paid?

– Where do PRS, MCPS and PPL fit in?
