 Posted: Tue, 24 Jan, 2006 18:59 Post subject: The Dreaded Copyright |
 |
|
The boys and I at Elements want for everybody to be able to listen to our mixes on our website, but the issue of !!Copyright!! has been raised.
If the mixes are live vinyl sets, are we getting round the copyright? If they are pre-recorded do we have to pay any fees?
After reading in mixmag that a new DJ super 'copyright' tax of £200 is going to be charged to DJs using CDJ's, should the boys and I be worried?
Any info would be great.
Cheers! |

Thanks very much for you help, I found this to be the most useful. So if anyone has the same questions as me, read on!
Simple piracy - is the unauthorised duplication of an original recording for commercial gain without the consent of the rights owner. The packaging of pirate copies is different from the original. Pirate copies are often compilations, such as the "greatest hits" of a specific artist, or a collection of a specific genre, such as dance tracks.
Counterfeits - are copied and packaged to resemble the original as closely as possible. The original producer's trademarks and logos are reproduced in order to mislead the consumer into believing that they are buying an original product.
Bootlegs - these are the unauthorised recordings of live or broadcast performances. They are duplicated and sold - often at a premium price - without the permission of the artist, composer or record company. |
