The Issues
END UNFAIR PRACTICES, UPDATE OUTDATED LAWS
Radio used to be one of the only ways consumers could listen to music, but times have changed. The explosive growth of digital music streaming services, combined with the diversity of listening options found on satellite radio, have transformed the music landscape. Yet, the laws that govern music today were designed for a media landscape that no longer exists. This creates an environment where traditional radio continues to refuse to compensate artists fairly, and other services hide behind legal loopholes to avoid paying artists when they profit from their works. musicFIRST is working for a clear and efficient system that supports fair pay for all music on all platforms.
The Solution
Fairness for all Music Creators
Music has value and music creators should be fairly compensated for their work. Legislation that addresses these issues, combined with more responsible practices by music services, will restore the core American value of fairness to music.
