About IBISWorld Industry Reports

Going it alone

Every time a song is used or performed the copyright owner, traditionally, music publishers, must grant permission and issue a license to collect payment. However, this is becoming increasingly harder to enforce with the advent of digital music sharing and downloading technology. Adding to music publishers woes are artists who are becoming more reluctant to commit to a contract which relinquishes control of their intellectual property as the need for assistance with promotion and distribution diminishes. Enforcing existing regulations against file sharing and lobbying to limit its use, is futile as the growth of online music continues apace. New digital environments and opportunities for growth in new markets including online commercials and mobile phone ringtones, are being sourced and incorporated into the savvy music publishers business model.

In-depth industry market research presented in a logical and consistent format. Including 38 pages of insights covering industry conditions, key statistics, competitor analysis and market share, product and customer segmentation and a 5 year forecast.

DEFINITION


Music publishers work for musicians, songwriters and composers. They are responsible for licensing the intellectual property of their clients and ensuring that royalties are collected. Royalties are earned each time a song is downloaded on iTunes, sold on a CD, reproduced by another artist or played on the radio, a television show or a movie.
