1. Music royalties Australia
Both Kinds of Music
The heading is not an attempt to pay homage to the “Blues Brothers”. It is not a reference to the
“Country and Western” music played at Bob’s Country Bunker. Both kinds of music in this
instance refers to those tunes where royalties are paid per performance and Royalty Free Music.
It is the responsibility of all businesses where music is played or performed to have a current
license as issued by APRA and PPCM.
As You Play So Must You Pay
The authors, recording artists, musicians, and
publishers all have a vested interest in their published
music being performed or played anywhere business
is conducted.
APRA/AMCOS and PPCM are the official agencies
assigned the duty of collecting and distributing the
royalties due by those who play or perform published
music at a place of business. Let’s face it. There
would be total chaos if each copyright owner had to
go round and individually collect royalties due.
Avoiding the Impost of Annual Licence Fees
Media Group, the business audio specialist, has an extensive library of the other kind of music -
Royalty Free Music. This is recorded music that is exempt from any liability to pay annual fees.
The library includes tracks from all genres including pop, rock, jazz, blues, country and more.
If you want to take advantage of the mood-altering power of music to improve the instore
ambience and increase sales. Or if you want to stimulate and improve staff productivity levels
you need to talk to the experts at Media Group.
Together you and the musicologists from Media Group will be able to create a series of playlists
designed to appeal to your customer or staff profile.
The tracks selected will be drawn from the Media Group library so they will not attract the usual
annual licence fees.
