Abstract

The Intellectual Property framework is a crucial underpinning factor in the success of the UK’s creative industries. It provides rights owners and holders with the tools to promote and distribute creative content to the public and to receive remuneration and attribution in return.

Commissioned by the UK Intellectual Property Office (IPO) and supported by a Project Board including the two national UK music collection societies, PRS for Music and PPL, the prime objective of this research is to highlight infrastructure issues that appear to hamper the fair and timely distribution of revenue from digital music platforms. The findings of this report reflect the views and opinions gathered from over 50 interviews from high profile music industry representatives.
