Broadcasting corporations license

The license fee for broadcasting corporations is determined according to three main parameters.

  1. Extent of use of protected works.
  2. The degree of importance of the use of the protected work.
  3. The benefit that accrues to the user of the protected works, when this is expressed in the user's income.

It is accepted worldwide regarding the use of music in broadcasts, that the user must pay up to 10% of his income for the use of the works. The payment is subject to the the time of use of the protected works versus the total time of its broadcasts, with the exception of the broadcast time of third parties within the channel itself.

This rate is accepted both by the United Nations Organization for Education, "UNESCO" Culture and Science, the World Organization for Intellectual Property WIPO and in various countries, by legislation or by judicial decisions. The calculation of royalties according to these three parameters is fair and reasonable. On the one hand, the creators will receive royalties based on the actual use of their works, and on the other hand, the broadcasting corporations will only pay for the actual use they made of the protected works, taking into account the degree of importance of the use in their broadcasts and according to the benefit they derived from that use.
