I was looking through the dj booth forum and came across this thread
http://www.tranceaddict.com/forums/...12&pagenumber=1
Kinda shocked on these "regulations" or iron bars, but it was not stated if this would affect the united states? Any thoughts or remarks on this issue? :eyes:
quotes from the article:
The making of digital copies
(1) The DJ will only be licensed to make digital copies of legitimately-sourced sound recordings owned by the DJ – e.g. vinyl, CDs, digital downloads from legitimate websites. Copies cannot be made from illegitimate sources such as bootleg CDs or unauthorised download sites, or from CDs or digital files borrowed from e.g. another DJ. The DJ will not be permitted to make digital copies of unauthorised “mixes” of sound recordings.
(2) The DJ will be authorised to create and keep (for the duration of their licence) a single database of the digital copies of sound recordings they create under the licensing arrangement.
(3) The DJ will not be able to make or keep multiple digital copies of any sound recording, whether in the database or separately.
(4) The maximum number of digital copies that can be kept on the database at any one time will be 10,000 tracks. Please note that it will not be permissible to evade this limit by deleting excess tracks and saving them on separate disks.
Mixing
(6) Copies must be unaltered from the music contained on the original sound recordings. Please note that this prohibition will not prevent a DJ from mixing sound recordings whilst playing live at a gig, but will prevent them from making any recordings of such mixes).
Payment terms
(8) Each registered DJ must pay a licence fee of £200 annually and in advance. The fee will be subject to adjustment each year to take account of inflation.
Policing the use of digital copies
(11) DJs will be required to report where they play (so that PPL can confirm the venues hold public performance licences under PPL’s Specially Featured Entertainment Tariff).
(12) PPL will be entitled to inspect the DJ’s computer (or other storage device) to make sure that the DJ is complying with the terms of the licence.
(13) DJs will have to provide a list of tracks copied onto their computer (or other storage device). This information will be required to enable PPL to distribute the licence fee income generated under the draft licensing arrangement. |

This was my response to this thread posted elsewhere on these boards:
Wanna know the truth?
"PPL" has zero authority. This comminique only determines to seek authority for fiscal profit from we, who can be the only republic to grant such authority to "PPL".
In-other-words "PPL" has no authority at this time, furthermore "PPL" is seeking solely to profit financially from it's ideas.
Bottom-line: "PPL" has no authority without our reliquishing such authority. End of story. |
