How Digital Changed Licensing and the Economics of Copyright  As distribution methods for music develop and evolve, copyright law has remained fairly constant.   However, consumption of music and the licensing process have been completely altered as technology has enabled micro-payments and real-time tracking.   Meanwhile, major catalogues have been removed from PRO's and some labels have been able to negotiate terrestrial performance rights for sound recordings through larger digital deals.  This discussion will reveal the ways new business models for music have changed royalty rate structures, licensing, and payments for music, and the underlying economic impact.
