copy right law and FAC key demands

The FAC has taken a markedly different stance from the 'traditional music industry' on several key issues such as copyright term extension and, in particular, online piracy where the FAC has argued against 'criminalising fans' through prosecuting not for profit file sharing of music.

It lists the following six as its key demands:

• An agreement by the music industry that artists should receive fair compensation whenever their business partners receive an economic return from the exploitation of the artists’ work.

• All transfers of copyright should be by license rather than by assignment.

• The ‘making available’ right should be monetized on behalf of featured artists and all other performers.

• Copyright owners to be obliged to follow a ‘use it or lose it’ approach to the copyrights they control.

• The rights for performers should be improved to bring them more into line with those granted to authors (songwriters, lyricists and composers).

• A change to copyright law which will end the commercial exploitation of unlicensed music purporting to be used in conjunction with ‘critical reviews’ and abusing the UK provisions for ‘fair dealing'.

It has also worked in concert with the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors and the Music Producers Guild in campaigns to protect rights of performers and musicians and for "artists to have more control of their music and a much fairer share of the profits".
