What is Performing Rights Organizations?

Performing Rights Organizations
These are organizations that track and collect performing rights royalties on behalf of the publishers and composers who are members of any of these organizations. Once the royalties are collected, the organization distributes these to their members less their administration fee. Performing rights organizations (PRO) only collect performing rights royalties for music used in public performances such as radio and TV broadcast, commercials, films, restaurants, and stores. Broadway and other theater use of the music are not included in the PRO's duty in collecting royalties. Performing rights for these types of purpose, the so-called dramatic performing rights, are dealt straight with the composer or publisher.
Many royalty free music, stock music and buy-out music companies proclaim to be completely royalty free while still requiring that you submit a cue sheet to these performing rights organizations so they can collect royalties when their music is played.
There are a few truly royalty free companies who do not require this extra expense.

Every songwriter, composer, and publisher has exclusive rights to their own work whether they have registered it with the copyright office or not. Every time their music will be used by another person, establishment, or production company, these authors are entitled to royalties to be paid by those who will use their work. However, it may be a daunting task for each composer or publisher to deal with every person or company who wants to “borrow” their music for a specific purpose. This is the reason why performing rights organizations were formed.

Duties of the Performing Rights Organizations
Performing Rights Organizations, or PROs, are groups that have composers and music publishers as their members. These Performing Rights Organizations are the ones responsible for tracking and collecting performing rights royalties for the use of their members' music. Performing Rights Organizations collect only non-dramatic performance rights, though. This means that using the music for theatrical purposes will need to be negotiated directly with the publisher or author of the music to be used. Examples of non-dramatic performances are radio and TV broadcasts, films, commercials, and use of music in establishments.

Performing Rights Organizations monitor radio broadcasts for the use of their members' music. For TV and films, PROs track the use of music through cue sheets. Producers fill out the cue sheets and submit them to the Performing Rights Organization with a member who owns the copyright of the music listed in the sheet. If the sheet contains music owned by members from different Performing Rights Organizations, the cue sheet needs to be submitted to each Performing Rights Organization.

PROs Are Serious About Their Getting Their Royalties...
Performing Rights Organizations are quite strict in implementing their policies. Those who choose to ignore their policies, much more their presence, may be facing more problems in the future. Performing Rights Organizations are said to have sent lawyers at times to demand payment for the royalties from entities who choose not to pay the fees for using the music still under copyright. Some even claimed that Performing Rights Organizations have sent US Marshals to stores and took money from their registers as payment for the use of their members' music.

Licensing Process
Music still with exclusive rights owned by the composer or publisher requires performing rights royalties every time they will be used in public. However, since it can be very tedious for a user to acquire the rights for each song to be used, the performing rights organizations made a fee structure that would make getting a license easy for the broadcasters or establishments who will use the music.

Performing Rights Organizations have established that users only need to pay an annual license fee for the public use of the songs owned by their members. The annual fee to be paid depends on different factors. For example, the annual fee to be paid by an establishment playing music depends on the size of the establishment, the number of speakers used to play the music and whether pre-recorded music will be used or a live performance will be done. Broadcasting music over radio or TV will require much higher annual license fees than those paid by stores. Generally, Performing Rights Organizations base the annual fee on the extent of public reach of the music to be played or, in other words, the number of people who will hear the music.

What is Royalty-Free Music?
Royalty-free music is a music that can be purchased for a one-time fee and then be used by the purchaser as many times as needed.It does not require the payment of any on-going fees or royalties, commonly referred to as mechanical rights,Synchronization rights,and performance right.

There are many applications for which music must be licensed but the traditional payment structure (in which a royalty is charged for each usage) would be cumbersome or more costly.  For example: If a piece of royalty-free music was purchased to be used on a multimedia CD project, it would not matter if one CD or 100,000 CDs were produced - the purchase fee would be exactly the same.

Royalty-free music is getting popular these days. Most people believe that they would be saving a lot more money by buying royalty-free music than the *traditional ones. This may be true. However, it should also be known to the public that not all royalty-free music is also free from paying performing rights. It can really sound complicated and some may think that it doesn't make sense, but it is true.

Composers and publishers friendly enough to the users offer their works royalty-free. This means that those who want to use their music for any purpose need only to pay a one-time fee, which already allows unlimited use of the music by the buyer. However, if the music will be used in a public performance, it still needs to be reported to the Performing Rights Organizations and a license from them is still required.

The owners of the copyright claims their music to be royalty-free because it is indeed so. No recurring royalties will be asked from the buyer with each use of the music. If it will be used in public, it is in the assumption of the composer or publisher that the buyer already has license acquired from the Performing Rights Organizations and is just adding more music to his list. The buyer, therefore, needs to pay the one-time fee for the royalty-free music and the annual license fee to the Performing Rights Organizations in order to use the music in a public performance. The composer, on the other hand, gets the one-time fee for his royalty-free music and a portion of the license fee paid to the Performing Rights Organizations for the public use of the music. In essence, the buyer still needs to shell out a lot of money despite the fact that he is buying a royalty-free music

Another term for royalty-free music is buyout music/flat payment system. The user pays a one-time fee for unlimited usage of the music.  At Double-beat.com, we charge only $10 to $15.00 per track .You pay once and then you can use our music track as time as you needed, you can use our music for
