Not a week goes by without my receiving an urgent e-mail from someone at a radio station or production company, asking me to "settle an argument" regarding copyright laws.
Typically, the client (or the sales department) is insisting on using copyrighted music in a commercial. The producer thinks it's illegal, but everyone else keeps insisting "it's okay; everyone does it."
Finally I decided to create a single, easy-to-read e-book (PDF format) that answers all the questions you might have regarding copyright law as it affects the day-to-day operation of your broadcast station or production company.
Note: I realize you don't have time to read a dense, legalistic textbook. Although it answers all the copyright-related questions that come up in your radio station every day, the entire e-book numbers just 30 pages. No fluff, no filler. Just the information you need, at your fingertips whenever you need it.
But if you judge a book by the number of its pages rather than by the value of its information, please do not order this!
I began by interviewing a nationally known expert on copyright law -- an attorney whose work has been cited repeatedly in arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court.
After a brief review of what a "copyright" actually is, our expert addressed every conceivable permutation of copyright law questions -- every issue that you've wondered about in the past or might face in the future.
For instance....
IS IT LEGAL TO.....
? Air a commercial that uses a copyrighted song and/or performance? ? Air a commercial that features a copyrighted song with your own original performance? ? Air a commercial that uses a copyrighted song that you have rewritten to suit the advertiser? ? Air a commercial that uses only an instrumental version of a copyrighted song? ? Air a commercial for a musical performer's local concert, using recorded examples of his/her music? Hint: This is not covered by your BMI or ASCAP fees! There is a way to do this legally, but very few stations know how. ? Air a TV commercial for your radio station, featuring some of the music your station plays? ? Record a TV program's theme music and play it on your airwaves? ? Air a commercial for a nightclub that includes copyrighted music representing the types of music the club plays? (Even if the club itself pays for a license fee to play the music in the club?) ? Take music that has been licensed by a national advertiser for a national campaign and use it to create a recorded commercial for a local affiliate or franchisee of that national advertiser? ? Present a dramatic, on-air reading of a copyrighted book? ? Use "drop-ins" or "wild tracks" recorded from TV programs? ? Use "drop-ins" or "wild tracks" recorded from movies? ? Broadcast something you've recorded from another TV or radio station (e.g., news report, news conference, portion of an interview, etc.)? ? Broadcast a sporting event highlight recorded from another broadcast station?
