You sure? I'd like to see that. I would think any sample in excess of say, 3 seconds would be unauthorised unless there are explicit differneces set out for record shops. Meanwhile, anyone know how most other online shops get away with longer samples? Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk

They may have long ago, but not since they launched the new site. Most samples are 60 seconds-ish now, although some older ones are shorter, and occasionally some are longer. Thing is, I can't think of many other sites that actually stick to a 30 second limit, otherwise I would just assume Juno don't care. Tristan === [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phonopsia.co.uk

Re: (313) Re: SPAM-LOW: Re: (313) retroactive 002
I discussed this issue with the head of the MCPS in Scotland a year or so ago- the basic deal is that they treat audio clips on websites to be essentially a fund raising exercise, ie you are trying to sell something (duh!) in the same way a radio station is trying to sell something (advertising in their case) when they play music over the airways- therfore a license fee is due to artists who's music you play in the same way that they get paid if their music gets played on the radio or used in a TV transmission. As far as I remember there is a minimal fee due as long as the clips are under 30 seconds and a more substantial (i.e. truly eye watering) fee if they are of a longer duration- Juno may either be paying the larger fee as they are a pretty substantial organisation or they may just be chancing their luck. Of course, as always with these things, artists from small independent labels rarely see any of the cash collected by the relevant authorities on their behalf and the vast majority goes to Dire Straits, Robbie Williams and the odd bit left over for Tiesto and Joey Negro. cheers Jason On 29 Mar 2006, at 15:36, Tristan Watkins wrote: - Original Message - From: robin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Paul Hudson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: 313@Hyperreal.Org 313@hyperreal.org Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 3:23 PM Subject: SPAM-LOW: Re: (313) retroactive 002 it's a RIAA/BPI thing, any longer and technically they're in breach of licensing or something. rediculous i know.
