The MLC and MusicTech Startups
The Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC), a non-profit organization established by the Music Modernization Act, is crucial for music startups as it administers blanket mechanical licenses for digital streaming and download services, ensuring songwriters and publishers receive royalties for their works.
In this session, educator Serona Elton, Esq. will discuss the details of the Blanket License for startups and new digital service providers, as well as the data programs The MLC Offers to help digital media and technology companies gain insight into musical work ownership and develop solutions for businesses, rightsholders, and consumers.
