COPYRIGHT OFFICE SEEKS COMMENTS ON WEBCASTING NOTICE AND RECORDKEEPING FOR PAST PERFORMANCES

The Copyright Office is requesting public comment on what regulations it should adopt relating to records of use for past performances of sound recordings performed pursuant to the statutory license for public performances of sound recordings by means of digital audio transmissions (including webcasting) since October 28, 1998. These regulations will relate to performances that have taken place before the adoption of recordkeeping and reporting requirements that will be announced soon. Among other things, the Office wishes to know whether there are any proxies that may be used in lieu of actual reporting of past performances.
