Licensing
Every use of music requires permission — a licence — for both the composition and the recording. Master the categories: blanket, direct, compulsory, statutory.
01
Blanket: all-you-can-eat for broadcasters/venues/DSPs via PROs.
02
Direct: negotiated one-to-one rates.
03
Compulsory: statutory rights that override negotiation (covers, non-interactive radio).
