Universal Music Sues YouTube, MySpace

Universal Music filed suit against popular web sites YouTube and MySpace for music copyright violations; both sites deny the allegations but Universal claims they are owed millions. These two lawsuits are just the beginning in what promises to be a long line of lawsuits to come; the music industry is coming down increasingly hard on those who continue to broadcast music without a music license.

As in our previous blog a couple of days ago, Performance Rights Organizations like ASCAP also recently took legal action against 2 dozen venues playing music without paying royalties. Any business including restaurants, businesses who use music on hold, muzak, in-store music, basically any one who plays music intended for the public to hear or on the internet must obtain music license to play music legally.

These legal actions are avoidable through the purchase of music licenses or royalty free music, royalty free music being the cheaper and easier to obtain of the two. Unlike most music licenses there is only a one time fee and the purchaser is free to use the music as often and however they like. If you’re still playing music without a proper license you really should consider royalty free music for peace of mind. It‘s worth the small fee, as being sued could cost you thousands if not millions of dollars. There is really no reason to continue risking legal action, your business and reputation by playing music illegally.
