CLAIM & LICENSE MUSIC ON SOCIAL MEDIA - A SXSW PANEL DISCUSSION
Wednesday, March 13th | 3:30pm
Official SXSW Event / SXSW badge required

In 2016, the big question was: Are social media platforms going to obtain music licenses and pay for music uploaded to their services? In 2019, many platforms have now obtained the proper licenses to play and share music, but that was only the first step. Now, the question is: Where is the money going and how are the creators and artists getting paid? With multiple copyright owners, writers, labels and publishers involved, the answer isn't simple. David Levin, Vice President of Digital Licensing at BMI, will discuss alongside Bob Bruderman, SVP, Global Digital Partnerships at Kobalt Music Publishing, with additional participants to be announced soon. The discussion will take place at the Austin Convention Center, room 11AB (500 E. Cesar Chavez St).
