  • Licensing Rules Repertoire Definition
    CIS14-0091R40 Source language: English 30/06/2021 The most recent updates are marked in red Licensing Rules Repertoire Definition This document sets out the repertoire definitions claimed directly by European Licensors in Europe and in some cases outside Europe. the repertoires are defined per Licensor / territory / types of on-line exploitations and DSPs with starting dates when necessary. Differences with the last version of this document are written in red. The document is a snap shot of the current information available to the TOWGE and is updated on an ongoing basis. Please note that the repertoires are the repertoires applied by the Licensors and are not precedential nor can they bind other licensing entities. The applicable repertoire will always be the one set out in the respective representation agreement between Licensors. Towge best practices on repertoires update are: • to communicate an update preferably 3 months but no later than 1 month before the starting period of the repertoire in order to allow enough time for Towge to communicate a new "repertoire definition document" to both Licensors and Licensees, which will allow these to adapt their programs accordingly • to not re-process invoices that have already been generated by Licensors and processed by Licensees Date of Publication Repertoire Licensing Body Pan-European Repertoire Definition DSPs Use Type Start Date Notes End Date Contact licensing Apr-19 WCM Anglo-American ICE Warner Chappell Music Publishing repertoire (mechanical and CP rights) licensable under the PEDL arrangement where the 7 Digital Ltd all digital 01/01/2010 Steve.Meixner repertoire author/composer of the Musical Work (or part thereof as applicable) is non-society or a member of PRS, IMRO, ASCAP, BMI, Amazon Music Unlimited (Steve.Meixner@u SESAC, SOCAN, SAMRO or APRA.

  • Algorithms and Curated Playlist Effect on Music Streaming Satisfaction
    ALGORITHMS AND CURATED PLAYLIST EFFECT ON MUSIC STREAMING SATISFACTION by Johny Sanchez Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Departmental Honors in the Department of Business Information Systems Texas Christian University Fort Worth, Texas May 7, 2018 ii ALGORITHMS AND CURATED PLAYLIST EFFECT ON MUSIC STREAMING SATISFACTION Project Approved: Supervising Professor: Jeffrey Stratman, Ph.D. Department of Business Information Systems Wendy Williams, Ph.D. John V. Roach Honors College iii ABSTRACT This research attempts to better understand the use of algorithms by music streaming services Apple Music and Spotify, and determine if their use affects user satisfaction. Both Apple Music and Spotify have integrated algorithms into their service in order to provide individually curated playlist. These playlists are created based on a user’s musical taste gathered by interacting with the service. The playlists allow users to discover new music based on what they enjoy. The more a user provides information on the type of music they like, then the better at predicting the algorithms become. The research attempts to answer: does the use of algorithms, analytics, and curated playlists enhance customer satisfaction and music discovery in Apple Music and Spotify? Both companies have invested heavily into their algorithms and it is important to know if they benefit the user. To find the answer to the question, college aged (18-23) individuals were surveyed on their engagement and satisfaction with Apple Music and/or Spotify. Without access to either company’s algorithms a proxy for an input to them was used. Results show that for a one degree increase in engagement there was a 37.8% increase in user satisfaction.

  • Music Recommendation Algorithms: Discovering Weekly Or Discovering
    MUSIC RECOMMENDATION ALGORITHMS Music Recommendation Algorithms: Discovering Weekly or Discovering Weakly? Jennie Silber Muhlenberg College, Allentown, PA, USA Media & Communication Department Undergraduate High Honors Thesis April 1, 2019 1 MUSIC RECOMMENDATION ALGORITHMS 2 MUSIC RECOMMENDATION ALGORITHMS Abstract This thesis analyzes and assesses the cultural impact and economic viability that the top music streaming platforms have on the consumption and discovery of music, with a specific focus on recommendation algorithms. Through the support of scholarly and journalistic research as well as my own user experience, I evaluate the known constructs that fuel algorithmic recommendations, but also make educated inferences about the variables concealed from public knowledge. One of the most significant variables delineated throughout this thesis is the power held by human curators and the way they interact with algorithms to frame and legitimize content. Additionally, I execute my own experiment by creating new user profiles on the two streaming platforms popularly used for the purpose of discovery, Spotify and SoundCloud, and record each step of the music discovery process experienced by a new user. After listening to an equal representation of all genre categories within each platform, I then compare the genre, release year, artist status, and content promotion gathered from my listening history to the algorithmically-generated songs listed in my ‘Discover Weekly’ and ‘SoundCloud Weekly’ personalized playlists. The results from this experiment demonstrate that the recommendation algorithms that power these discovery playlists intrinsically facilitate the perpetuation of a star- driven, “winner-take-all” marketplace, where new, popular, trendy, music is favored, despite how diverse of a selection the music being listened to is.

After a few quiet weeks around the holidays, winter is always a remarkably busy time at the theater as we prepare for Mission Creek Festival (full disclosure: I am a co-founder but many people have their hands in making this event work). This year marks the tenth installment of Mission Creek Festival in Iowa City, and we at the Englert are proud to be the producer of the festival. The lineup often reminds me of the programmatic vision that drives my work at the theater: to present the known and unknown side-by-side, to find a balance between the traditional and the experimental, to be reminded of a familiar feeling and to be rewarded by a new experience. Indeed, part of my job is to bring old favorites like Joan Baez, hot new bands like Lake Street Dive, or an institution of comedy like The Second City.

This Sun- day also kicks off the season of the saints for our church. A season of honoring those involved in ministry and culminated in All Saints Day with a remem- brance for those saints whom have gone on in the previous year. Oct 13th - Children's Sunday Children's Sunday is a day set aside to celebrate children as active par- ticipants in the life of the church. Children serve throughout the service. Chil- dren's Sabbath is an ecumenically celebrated weekend committed to educating the congregation about the state of today’s children and families. Children pro- vide leadership for the future of our church. Oct 20th - Joel 2:23-32 “The Sermon is in the Congregation” Laity Sunday focuses on the celebration of the ministry of all lay Chris- tians. On Laity Sunday, we celebrate that we are all called, laity as well as clergy, to go and make disciples in a world so desperately in need of hope through our humble service. Jesus modeled the process for us. Therefore we all are to be ready to share the good news and make disciples. Are you ready to share? Today is also Consecration Sunday! Oct 27th - Psalm 65 - Reformation Sunday Today we continue that movement towards our All Saints Celebration as we celebrate Reformation Sunday.
