Online & mobile radio
Developments in technology are facilitating the delivery of radio services across new platforms and new reception devices, providing the consumer with greater choice in how, when and where they access such content. Where these new services include sound recordings, appropriate licences are required from either the copyright owner (usually a record company) or from PPL.
The scope of rights licensable by PPL, together with the terms of such licences, are continually evolving to keep pace with the development of the services themselves. Service providers should contact the PPL broadcasting team for licensing advice if their service does not appear to be eligible for the PPL licences currently offered.
