Music Modernization Act: Roundtable Panel Held at the GRAMMY Museum - Records, Labels, and A&R in the Streaming Age: Copyrights, Distribution, Licensing, and the Law under the Music Modernization Act
The Music Modernization Act (“MMA”), signed into law October 11, 2018, is the most extensive revision of the Copyright Act since the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), almost exactly twenty years earlier. Every industry probably considers itself complex in its nuances, but the Copyright Office, when describing the § 115 Reform Act of 2006 (“SIRA”) to the House Judiciary Committee, suggested that “the sheer number and complexity” of issues in music licensing “render a holistic solution improbable, if not impossible.” SIRA’s attempt at a relatively narrow solution had failed to attract consensus among rights owners in the music industry (performing artists and composers, music publishers and record labels, digital music services, etc.) on how to address certain problems, and what resulted twelve years later was an omnibus approach carefully constructed to balance at least some of the needs and interests of virtually all constituencies in the music business. This panel discusses how the bill came together and what it means for the industry, how it affects lawyers and their clients, and best practices.
