IA Urges Senate Passage of Music Copyright Package Ahead of Markup

The Senate Judiciary Committee should advance the Music Modernization Act (S-2823) Thursday during markup (see 1806210043), said Internet Association CEO Michael Beckerman. “Bring mechanical licensing out of the era of player pianos and into the digital age,” Beckerman said Wednesday. “The entire music ecosystem will benefit from the increased choice and availability of music under the new system created by the MMA.”
