Napster Hounded For Pounds In UK

0 views

One of the most recognizable names in online music sales has signed a "digital royalties deal." Napster, along with MusicNet, "reached a settlement relating to the royalties paid to composers, songwriters and music publishers for the digital delivery of music for online and mobile use."

press release was surprisingly short and vague - the names "Napster" and "MusicNet" were only used twice each - but made it clear that the deal would only apply in what was called "the UK digital music market." The MCPS-PRS Alliance, by the way, is a combination of the Mechanical-Copyright Protection Society (MCPS) and the Performing Right Society (PRS). Del.icio.us | Digg | Yahoo!
