Responsibilities as the designated
organization for secondary use fees |
|
|
When public or private broadcasters, cable broadcasters and satellite broadcasters use commercial sound recordings
in their programs, these operators are obliged to pay "secondary use fee" to the producers of phonograms
based on the copyright law. Under the designation of the Commissioner of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, we
are mandated by the producers to set the amount of secondary use fee with each broadcaster, then collect and
distribute the fee. |

Responsibilities as the designated
organization
for record-rental remuneration |
|
|
When recordings that were released over one year ago are used by a rental store, the rental store is obliged
to pay remuneration. The Association has been mandated by phonogram producers to set the amount of the remuneration
for rentals between the Compact Disc & Video Rental Trade Association of Japan which is mandated by rental
stores and to collect and distribute these fees, as is the case with secondary use fee. On the other hand, in
regards to the royalty for recordings that were released less than one year ago, which means it is within "Lending
Right," we have been mandated by phonogram producers to collect and distribute the royalty along with remuneration
for recordings only produced by domestic phonogram producers. We also work representing the producers to maintain
smooth operations between record-rental shops and the producers based on the contract. |

Responsibilities concerning compensation
for private audio/video recording |
|
|
Currently, the compensation for recording of music or images for private use are collected by the Society for
Administration of Remuneration for Audio Home Recording (SARAH) and Society for Administration of Remuneration
for Video Home Recording (SARVH) respectively. These are both organizations designated by the Commissioner of
the Agency for Cultural Affairs. We receive the audio and video compensation from SARAH and SARVH respectively
as a member organization of both societies representing phonogram producers and then distribute it to the producers. |
