SODRAC"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"normal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/en\/thumb\/c\/cf\/Flag_of_Canada.svg\/1000px-Flag_of_Canada.svg.png\" border=\"0\" width=\"218\" height=\"109\" \/><br \/>Music Canada welcomes the Supreme Court&#8217;s decision  in the CBC v. SODRAC case which reaffirms that a copy of a recording has  value for which creators must be fairly compensated.  <!--more-->  <br \/> The Supreme Court has determined that broadcasters must pay royalties on  reproductions of audiovisual works \u2013 in this case known as incidental  or ephemeral copies, which are used in the preparation of broadcasts \u2013  because they add value to the final product. The decision also ensures  that Canada meets its international treaty obligations in this area. The  Court further determined that rights holders are free to license their  rights as they see fit, in this case, separately licensing television  producers and broadcasters. And the Court noted that the principle of  &#8220;technological neutrality&#8221; entitles copyright holders to larger  royalties where the use of technology enables greater value to be  obtained from use of a copyrighted work.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Today&#8217;s decision by our highest Court is an affirmation for Canada&#8217;s  creative middle class,&#8221; says Graham Henderson, President &amp; CEO of  Music Canada. &#8220;The creative community should have access to a fair and  functioning market that rewards them based on demand for their work.  This is critical for Canadian artists whose livelihoods depend on  earning fair compensation from their profession and for the companies  that invest in them and their careers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Today&#8217;s Supreme Court decision confirms years of precedents that support  the growth and development of the music industry. The ruling rejects  the argument that when a rights holder exercises one right, all other  rights disappear. While the Supreme Court has decided to remit the  matter to the Copyright Board to revalue SODRAC&#8217;s tariff, the Supreme  Court has made it very clear that the judicial system will not be used  to subvert clear statutory rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"normal\">Source: <\/span><span class=\"normal\">Music Canada<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music Canada welcomes the Supreme Court&#8217;s decision in the CBC v.
