Abstract

Companies who use music or video to entertain customers need to maintain compliance with the “performance” provisions of the Copyright Act. Many businesses assume they are automatically exempt from paying royalties under the Copyright Act's Homestyle Exemption or the Fairness in Music Licensing Act of, 1998. Companies are often surprised to find they owe royalties to Performance Rights Organizations. This article discusses the Copyright Act and the compliance issues associated with playing copyrighted works within a business. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
