Global  Music  Rights  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The  Radio  Music  License  Committee  (RMLC)  has  Ciled  an  antitrust  complaint  against  the  new,  fourth  performing  rights  organization—Irving  Azoff‘s  Global  Music  Rights  (GMR)—which  begins  its  own  radio  licensing  for  the  songwriters  it  represents  on  Jan.  1,  2017.  The  complaint  is  motivated  by  what  the  RMLC  calls  “anticompetitive  behavior  that,  if  unchecked,  would  allow  GMR  to  charge  the  U.S.  commercial  radio  industry  monopoly  prices  to  publicly  perform  musical  works  in  the  GMR  repertory.”  Writers  in  GMR’s  fold  include  Nashville’s  Shane  McAnally,  Luke  Laird,  and  Paul  Overstreet,  in  addition  to  Pharrell  Williams,  Ryan  Tedder  and  the  estates  of  Lennon  and  Ira  Gershwin  among  many  others.  Read  the  full  story  by  clicking  here.    !! !!
