Office Publishes Review of Copyright Royalty Judges’ Determination
In accordance with the authority granted to the Register of
Copyrights under 17 U.S.C. 802 (f)(1)(D), the Register has reviewed
for legal error the determinations of the Copyright Royalty Judges
setting rates and terms for the use of the sections 112 and 114
statutory licenses by New Subscription Services, Preexisting
Subscription Services, and Satellite Digital Audio Radio Services.
The Register concludes that the Copyright Royalty Judges did
not establish separate values for the sections 114 and 112 licenses
and that this resolution constitutes an error on a material question
of substantive law under title 17. Further, the Register concludes
that the Copyright Royalty Judges’ determination of rates
for Satellite Digital Audio Radio Services did not include a
minimum fee for the section 112 license and that this resolution
was also in material error. This decision shall be binding as
precedent upon the Copyright Royalty Judges in subsequent proceedings.
