INFORMATION SHEET – D142 – JULY 2014

What is D142?

IMRO makes four major distributions for domestic income each year; in April, July, October and December. D142 is the second major domestic distribution for 2014.

As a result of IMRO’s increase in the frequency of royalty payments in a number of revenue streams, this distribution relates to the following royalties:

. Domestic Radio and Television Broadcasts (January – March 2014) . Tours and Residencies (January – March 2014) . RTE Performing Groups (January – March 2014) . Digital Royalties (October - December 2013) . Live Music Survey (January – March 2014) . Background Music (October - December 2013) . Discos (October - December 2013) . Cinema (January – December 2013) . Heritage (January – December 2013)

Basis of Payment Run

Information regarding the basis of payment for the above distribution elements can be found in the IMRO Distribution Policies document which is available online at www.imro.ie. A brief synopsis is outlined below.

Domestic Radio and Television (including advertising)

All TV and Radio stations are paid out on a duration basis.

The broadcasting revenue is shared amongst all performances logged and matched (i.e. linked to a work on our repertoire database).

Submissions of music logs received too late for inclusion in the distribution are added to the next available broadcast distribution.

Unidentified performances may be claimed by members by visiting our Online Unidentified Performance and Commercial Claim facilities, which are available by registering on the IMRO website at www.imro.ie . Please contact Aaron Casey or David Wilkinson at [email protected] for assistance with registering on the IMRO website.

Sample Rates

Stations are categorised either as full census, sampled or mixed.

Where a station is sampled, the value paid for each play is correspondingly higher than it would be if the station were subject to a full census.

If a station is on a mixed rate this means that they are delivering full census reports for all automated programming (i.e. where music is played out using an automated/play-out system) and are on a sample rate for all programming not delivered via an automated system (i.e. incorporating specialist programming).

As it would not be economically viable to collect and process logs from Community radio stations, the small amount of revenue received from these stations is distributed as part of the RTÉ Radio 1 and 2FM pools.

Tours and Residencies

IMRO receives submissions from our members and affiliated societies informing us of gigs and residencies throughout the country. The Tours and Residencies payment relates to those submissions. As Tours and Residencies are distributed four times a year, we encourage you to regularly submit your live performance details and set lists online via the member’s area of www.imro.ie so that you do not miss the submission deadlines.

In order for eligible performances to be included in the D143 (October 2014) payment, please submit your April to June 2014 performances online by Friday 15th August.

RTE Performing Groups

The RTÉ Performing Groups is comprised of the following: RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra, RTÉ Concert Orchestra, RTÉ Vanbrugh Quartet, RTÉ Philharmonic Choir, RTÉ Cór na nÓg.

Live Music Survey

The Live Music Survey is an extensive survey of live music in bars and hotels throughout the country. IMRO uses an independent agency to conduct visits to live music venues and to report back to IMRO the actual music being played.

Recorded background music

Recorded background music pools are distributed on the basis of analogies. Rather than distributing on the basis of actual surveys of recorded music use throughout the country, IMRO uses a selection of record sales charts and radio station logs that best reflects the music being used and the amount of usage.

Discos

Revenue collected from commercial discos is distributed on the basis of an analogy selected from charts (including popular and dance) and various radio station broadcasts.

Hotel Dances

Hotel Dances are distributed on the basis of an analogy selected from various radio station broadcasts.

Online (Ringtones/ Downloads/Streaming)

In this distribution, IMRO is distributing revenue received from the following online providers:

. IMI Mobile (July - December 2013) . Trust 5 Ringtones (July - December 2013) . iTunes Movies (October - December 2013)

Cinema/Heritage

Mainstream cinema royalties are distributed on the basis of box office figures returned by Rentrak EDI. Arthouse cinema royalties are distributed on the basis of performance logs returned by the IFI.

Cinema advertising royalties are distributed on the basis of advertising logs provided by Carlton Screen Advertising.

This distribution also includes Heritage Centre payments for 2013.
