What happens if another PPL member claims to control the rights in recordings which I think I hold the rights?

When PPL receive a claim from another member on repertoire that already has a recording rights owner, the recording will enter PPL’s informal dispute resolution process.

Each claiming member will be requested to confirm their claim and supply evidence of their claim. PPL will set deadlines for the submission of evidence, after which it will make a decision based on the information provided.

The dispute resolution process normally runs twice a year, in February and August. PPL will contact you at this time if any of your recordings are in dispute.
