Hopefully everyone can hear me? Great, welcome to the Department of Justice Antitrust Division’s two-day, Public Workshop on Competition in Licensing Music Public Performance Rights. My name is Karina Lubell, I’m an Assistant Chief in the Division’s Competition Policy and Advocacy section and I’ll be your emcee for this week’s workshop. We have an impressive lineup of speakers and what is guaranteed to be some lively discussions. Before I introduce our first speaker, just a few housekeeping items. An agenda has been posted to the workshop website, a link to which was provided to you by your registration email. There’ll be short breaks between sessions, but please feel free to log in and out as needed. The Zoom link that you received for all of today’s sessions is the same. All members of the audience will be muted for the duration of the workshop. Should you wish to ask a question of one of the panelists, please submit it by email to [email protected]. That address was also provided in your registration confirmation email. If you have any trouble with your audio or a video or for any other technology issues, please contact AT&T Conferencing with Zoom Help Desk at 800-345- 0857. And now without further ado, I’d like to introduce the Assistant Attorney General for the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division, Makan Delrahim. MAKAN DELRAHIM: Thank you so much, Karina, for all your work and for helping us coordinate this workshop. For nearly three years now, I’ve had the unique privilege of serving as the Assistant Attorney General for Antitrust at the Department of Justice. And on behalf of the Department of Justice, I want to welcome you to our workshop today. I also want to thank our esteemed panelists for the presentations and perspectives they will share with us over the next two days. Given these challenging times, I’m welcoming you to a virtual workshop rather than to one in the Great Hall of the Department of Justice, where we’ve held several of our earlier workshops on these matters. You may ask what is our goal for this workshop? I have to say in one word, it’s competition. Competition for the benefit of the American consumer; competition for the benefit of innovation; and competition for the benefit of the songwriters, composers and the artists. I feel confident that this workshop will be informative and valuable to both the participants, the public and us at the Antitrust Division. After all, it’s not every day that great artists like LeAnn Rimes, Pharrell and Jon Bon Jovi share a stage with boring antitrust lawyers and economists, but artists, like all workers, creators and innovators benefit from competitive markets. So, it is only natural that we should come together to discuss competition in music licensing. 2 Public Workshop on Competition in Licensing Music Public Performance Rights This workshop is part of the Division’s ongoing effort to promote competition in the music licensing industry. Those efforts began with consent decrees first secured as resolutions to antitrust suits brought by the Antitrust Division nearly 80 years ago. For students of history that is almost four scores sheets ago. These decrees between the Department of Justice and two organizations, ASCAP and BMI, continue to govern music public performance licensing today. Like so many of you, I love music and it has played a special role in my life. When I came to the United States as a refugee from Iran as a child, I didn’t speak a word of English. The music on the radio nonetheless spoke to me. “The Jazz Singer” was the first movie I saw in the United States. When Neil Diamond sang about people coming to America without a home, but not without a star, he was singing to me, I felt. And I’m sure many Americans respond similarly to that song. That is the magic of music, it speaks a universal language. It can make us feel joy, can make us feel pain. Like nothing else, it can spark our imaginations and our memories. To this day, hearing Neil Diamond floods me with memories of my early days in America as a child. Not much else can do that. Each of us here has a song that transports us to a magic moment, evokes a feeling or simply inspires us to carry on. Music, perhaps most profoundly of all, has the extraordinary capacity to inspire hope and bring us together in times of division. Many consumers of music today, wouldn’t recognize eight-track tapes, cassettes or vinyl records, or even perhaps CDs. Technology continues to evolve how we enjoy our music. Digital streaming technology now gives us all access to almost any song anytime and anywhere. Some may recall the Spanish ship that sailed to discover America, the Santa Maria. It carried the flag of Queen Isabella that bore the words, “Nothing Further” because they believed Spain to be the furthest point west in the world. When they discovered the new world in America, the Queen ordered the flag repainted to read “More Beyond.” With new technology and new business models, we know there’s more beyond for music. Congress has responded to various innovations with new laws, such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in 2000 and the Music Modernization Act just recently in 2018. Some of the rules that governed the music industry today, however, are quite old. The Justice Department’s consent decrees with ASCAP and BMI, for example, first went into effect in 1941. The year that United States entered World War II, with the bombing of Pearl Harbor. In that year, a gallon of gas was 12 cents and the average cost of a new home was a little over $4,000. Americans listened to music on the radio or on phonograph players, which were becoming more affordable. And there was a robust market for sheet music sales. Much has happened in the way we listen to music since then. As Churchill famously said, “To improve is to change, so to be perfect is to have changed often.” While I assume that no one would accuse the Antitrust Division of being perfect, we have periodically revisited and changed our views on antitrust enforcement based on new market realities or new economic discovery. After the Division’s most recent review of the music consent decrees in 2016, the Department issued a closing statement signaling that we might revisit the decrees after resolution of, among other things, uncertainty surrounding fractional licensing. About a year later, the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit concluded that the BMI consent decree allowed for fractional licensing. 3 Public Workshop on Competition in Licensing Music Public Performance Rights After the Second Circuit’s ruling, I began meeting with all interested parties about the decrees and

    Copyright by Ashley N. Mack 2013 The Dissertation Committee for Ashley N. Mack Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: DISCIPLINING MOMMY: RHETORICS OF REPRODUCTION IN CONTEMPORARY MATERNITY CULTURE Committee: Dana L. Cloud, Supervisor Joshua Gunn Barry Brummett Sharon J. Hardesty Christine Williams DISCIPLINING MOMMY: RHETORICS OF REPRODUCTION IN CONTEMPORARY MATERNITY CULTURE by Ashley N. Mack, B.A.; B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August, 2013 Dedication To Tiffany—for being an awesome lady, thinker, worker, “true” sister, daughter, and mother. Acknowledgements My family has something of a “curse”: Multiple generations of women have been single, working mothers. Therefore, the social pressures, expectations and norms of motherhood have always permeated my experiences of reproduction and labor. Everything I do has been built on the backs of the women in my family—so it is important that I thank them first and foremost. I would be remised if I did not also specifically thank my big sister, Tiffany, for sharing her experiences as a mother with me. Hearing her stories inspired me to look closer at rhetorics of maternity and this project would not exist if she were not brave enough to speak up about issues that produce shame and fear for many moms. Dana Cloud, my advisor, is a shining light at the end of the many dark tunnels that academic work can produce.

  • Music on PBS: a History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station
    Music on PBS: A History of Music Programming at a Community Radio Station Rochelle Lade (BArts Monash, MArts RMIT) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2021 Abstract This historical case study explores the programs broadcast by Melbourne community radio station PBS from 1979 to 2019 and the way programming decisions were made. PBS has always been an unplaylisted, specialist music station. Decisions about what music is played are made by individual program announcers according to their own tastes, not through algorithms or by applying audience research, music sales rankings or other formal quantitative methods. These decisions are also shaped by the station’s status as a licenced community radio broadcaster. This licence category requires community access and participation in the station’s operations. Data was gathered from archives, in‐depth interviews and a quantitative analysis of programs broadcast over the four decades since PBS was founded in 1976. Based on a Bourdieusian approach to the field, a range of cultural intermediaries are identified. These are people who made and influenced programming decisions, including announcers, program managers, station managers, Board members and the programming committee. Being progressive requires change. This research has found an inherent tension between the station’s values of cooperative decision‐making and the broadcasting of progressive music. Knowledge in the fields of community radio and music is advanced by exploring how cultural intermediaries at PBS made decisions to realise eth station’s goals of community access and participation. ii Acknowledgements To my supervisors, Jock Given and Ellie Rennie, and in the early phase of this research Aneta Podkalicka, I am extremely grateful to have been given your knowledge, wisdom and support.

  • Rock Star Bon Jovi Washes Dishes to Keep His Community
    Rock Star Bon Jovi Washes Dishes to Keep His Community Fed Week of July 19, 2020 In the News Had this been a normal summer, rock superstar Jon Bon Jovi, 58, would be on tour with his rock band Bon Jovi, but the global pandemic put the kibosh on that. So instead, Bon Jovi -- the man, not the band -- filled in as a dishwasher at the JBJ Soul Kitchen, a nonprofit community restaurant in New Jersey operated by the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation. And one outcome of that is a new song he wrote with help from his fans to tell their stories of life during the shutdown. The song is called "If You Can't Do What You Do, You Do What You Can." The JBJ Soul Kitchen, now in operation in three New Jersey locations, is an effort to address food insecurity -- hunger -- among people in need. The menu, which features fresh farm-to-table meals, has no posted prices. Patrons who can afford to do so make a donation to cover their own meal and the meal of someone else. Individuals or families who cannot afford to donate are fed anyway, and those who are able can pay it forward by volunteering for tasks in the kitchen, such as washing dishes. The JBJ Soul Kitchen website expresses the philosophy this way: "Community Dining with Dignity. All are welcome at our table where locally sourced ingredients, dignity and respect are always on the menu." The required increased social distancing ordered during the pandemic upended the Soul Kitchen's normal practices, especially when meals could only be served by take-out and the public could not be allowed in the kitchen, so Bon Jovi filled in at one of the restaurant's locations as a dishwasher.

  • Finding Grace in the Concert Hall: Community and Meaning Among Springsteen Fans
    FINDING GRACE IN THE CONCERT HALL: COMMUNITY AND MEANING AMONG SPRINGSTEEN FANS By LINDA RANDALL A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY On Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS In the Department of Religion December 2008 Winston Salem, North Carolina Approved By: Lynn Neal, PhD. Advisor _____________________________ Examining Committee: Jeanne Simonelli, Ph.D. Chair _____________________________ LeRhonda S. Manigault, Ph.D _____________________________ ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, my thanks go out to Drs. Neal and Simonelli for encouraging me to follow my passion and my heart. Dr. Neal helped me realize a framework within which I could explore my interests, and Dr. Simonelli kept my spirits alive so I could nurse the project along. My concert-going partner in crime, cruisin’tobruce, also deserves my gratitude, sharing expenses and experiences with me all over the eastern seaboard as well as some mid-America excursions. She tolerated me well, right up until the last time I forgot the tickets. I also must recognize the persistent assistance I received from my pal and companion Zero, my Maine Coon cat, who spent hours hanging over my keyboard as I typed. I attribute all typos and errors to his help, and thank him for the opportunity to lay the blame at his paws. And lastly, my thanks and gratitude goes out to Mr. Bruce Frederick Springsteen, a man of heart and of conscience who constantly keeps me honest and aware that “it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive (Badlands).”
