Reply Comment to Copyright Office Notice of Inquiry, Docket No. 2019-5, Music Modernization Copyright Act Implementing Regulations for Blanket License for Digital Uses and Mechanical Licensing Collective
(2019)
Abstract
We write to encourage the Office to include options in the new blanket licensing structure appropriate for libraries, archives, museums, and other educational and cultural institutions. We are music librarians, library copyright experts, and library associations who work with educational, research, and nonprofit institutions holding collections of sound recordings that could benefit from the MMA blanket section 115 “mechanical” licenses. However, for our institutions to benefit from the MMA’s blanket license provisions, the Office must include licensing options appropriate for our nonprofit, educational institutions.
