Copyright Office Publishes Final Rule on Filing Statements of Account
and Amends Section Heading for Section 201.11 C.F.R.
The Copyright Office is amending its rules to require each
cable operator, satellite carrier, and manufacturer and
importer of digital audio recording technology and media to
file with the Licensing Division of the Copyright Office
both an original statement of account and a copy of the
statement of account along with the appropriate royalty
payment. Prior to the rule change, the licensee had only to
file the original statement of account. This rule takes
effect on July 1, 2005. In addition, the Office is revising
the section heading for section 201.11 C.F.R. by removing
the phrase "for private home viewing." (Read further
