The MIME (Model of Intuitive Morality and Exemplars) is a theoretical model that examines the relationship between media and morality. It is a multi-stage model that incorporates exemplification theory and moral foundations theory. Exemplification theory posits that media frequently displays moral exemplars that influence the salience of different moral values. Moral foundations theory identifies five innate moral domains (care, fairness, loyalty, authority, purity) that shape intuitive moral judgments. The MIME model proposes that media content can affirm different moral domains through exemplars, influencing automatic and controlled moral appraisals and selective exposure over time on both short and long-term levels.

e-Democracy Conference 2011 presentation titled 'Citizen services and collaboration in the 21st Century' by Holger Schreyer, Director, Sales Engineering - EMEA Central Kofax Deutschland AG
Tom Silverman conducted research to determine how many new artists are breaking into the music industry each year. He defined "breaking" as selling over 10,000 albums in the year of release. In 2008, out of over 105,000 album releases, only 12 artists sold over 10,000 albums for the first time that year. The vast majority of breaking artists were signed to major labels or significant independent labels. Silverman concluded that technology has made it harder, not easier, for great new music to rise to popularity due to a lack of mass exposure, which requires money or luck.

Member has added advantages, including providing Members a centralized method for
obtaining sound recording performance royalties from outside the United States.
By signing below, you agree to the terms and conditions of this SoundExchange Sound
Recording Copyright Owner Membership Agreement ( the �Agreement�), as provided herein
and as it may be amended from time to time. You additionally agree to the attached
SoundExchange Policies & Procedures (�Policies & Procedures�).
By becoming a SoundExchange Member you will be authorizing SoundExchange to
nonexclusively license your recordings to services both inside the United States and in
territories you specify outside the United States, collect royalties on your behalf both within the
United States and from foreign territories, except those you identify on Addendum A, attached
hereto, and will also authorize SoundExchange to represent your interests in litigations, rate
adjustment proceedings and rulemakings before, among others, the United States Copyright
Office and the Copyright Royalty Judges (the �CRJs�). The CRJs oversees, among other
things, the establishment of rates, terms and notice and recordkeeping requirements under the
statutory licenses set forth in Sections 112(e) and 114 of the Copyright Act.

SoundExchange the non-exclusive right to license: (i) the public performance of sound
recordings owned (or controlled) by Member by means of digital audio transmissions subject to
statutory licensing under Section 114 of the U.S. Copyright Act; and (ii) the making of
phonorecords of sound recordings owned (or controlled) by Member subject to statutory
licensing under Section 112(e) of the U.S. Copyright Act. Member shall not similarly authorize
any other person or entity to undertake such activities in the U.S. on a collective basis for
Member and other copyright owners of sound recordings.
b. Royalty Collection & Distribution. Member designates SoundExchange as its
nonexclusive agent for the term of the Agreement to collect public performance and ephemeral
royalties for the transmission and reproduction of sound recordings payable under 17 U.S.C.
�� 112(e) and 114 and any applicable implementing regulations (hereafter �Statutory
Royalties�). Member authorizes SoundExchange to distribute Statutory Royalties pursuant to
17 U.S.C. �� 112(e) and 114 and any applicable implementing regulations, or in such manner
as authorized by the Board of Directors of SoundExchange (hereafter the �SoundExchange
Board�). Member shall not similarly authorize any other person or entity, to undertake such
activities in the U.S. on a collective basis for Member and other copyright owners of sound

public performance or communication of sound recordings owned (or controlled) by Member;
2. and (ii) the reproduction of sound recordings owned (or controlled) by Member solely for the
purposes of facilitating public performances or communications outside the U.S. This

performance royalties throughout the world except those territories listed for exclusion in the
attached Addendum A.
b. Royalty Collection & Distribution. Except with respect to the territories listed for

and any implementing regulations.
4. Undistributable Royalties. If SoundExchange is unable to distribute Member�s share of
any royalties (e.g., because the Member does not provide necessary information or

SoundExchange shall retain the Member�s royalties, and solicit such information or make
efforts to locate Member in accordance with SoundExchange policies, as modified from time to

the types deductible under Section 3, and Member shall have no further right, title, interest or
claim to such royalties. In no event shall SoundExchange claim undistributable royalties earlier

accordance with SoundExchange�s agreement with such organization.
