The decision to do it is already made. Now it\u2019s turn for legal technical work. It can take couple of months and a new collecting society is ready to work \u2013 to manage rights in music and to collect royalties on behalf of its members.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The reasons why new CMO will appear are prosaic \u2013 right holders are not happy with results of Russian authors\u2019 society. The most interesting thing is \u2013 why they took so long? Right holders are not satisfied with sums of collected royalties for public performance and other types of royalties. They claim they don\u2019t understand clearly how RAO works \u2013 everything is so confusing. They want clear and understandable system for themselves. Whether they can create such system the time will show. The most important thing is, in this story, \u2013 to create a collective management organisation, as it has been declared, but not another publishing house, uniting under its roof all unhappy right holders, or record-label, or any organisation other than administrating or managing their rights in music.<\/p>\n
The group of Russian right holders has initiated registration process. Among the founders of new CMO will be famous Russian producers and performers \u2013 Viktor Drobish, Stas Namin, Gennadiy Gladkov, Basta (Vasiliy Vakulenko), Nusha, Anna Drubich, Domenik Jocker and others. The technical side is not disclosed yet \u2013 some king of commercial secret. Few hundreds right holders agree to get on board.<\/p>\n
The main reason to create a new CMO is to be independent, rightful members of new society. Just to understand how it works \u2013 transparently collects, allocates and distributes collected royalties among its members. Viktor Drobish stated<\/a> that he is ready to be an ordinary member of such society but with one condition \u2013 expressly understand, forecast and analyse its operations and simple realise what is going on. \u201cThere is no goal to come up with new some organisation in order to lead it and make money on it\u201d \u2013 said Drobish. The documents for registration should be filed next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The decision to do it is already made. Now it\u2019s turn for legal technical work.
