BMI Considers Appeal of DMX Rate Court Decision

BMI has issued the following statement in response to the publication of the Opinion and Order in the Broadcast Music, Inc. vs. DMX rate court hearing in U.S. District Court, Southern District in New York.

“We strongly disagree with the court’s decision in the DMX case, which ignores the long history of Performance Right Organization (PRO) licensing agreements in the background music industry. We are examining the decision in depth and evaluating the basis for an appeal.”
