The 21st Century Music Reform Act

Filed under: — Shane Thacker 10:57 pm

Another modest proposal from U.S. Register of Copyrights Marybeth Peters. This time she proposes eliminating the current section of law that allows musicians to record covers, as long as they pay a fee. She proposes that a private organization set the rules and rates.

Ms. Peters seems to be making this sort of grand gesture a habit.
