The digital era has changed the way music is consumed: music is available to the general public through multiple streaming and digital distribution platforms. This fact leaves artists unprotected and facing serious remuneration, contractual and legal consequences. The AIE, as the collecting society for musicians’ rights, is committed to promoting legislative measures that allow fair remuneration for artists for the use of their performances on online platforms.

This conference will address the situation of artists in the digital market from the point of view of collection and distribution. It will also discuss the exercise or transfer of intellectual property rights, the obligations of the platforms that make commercial use of music and the main legislative changes in this area.
