    Journal of the Music & Entertainment Industry Educators Association Volume 7, Number 1 (2007) Bruce Ronkin, Editor Northeastern University Published with Support from The Revolution in Licensing Music for Television Has Arrived: Confronting the Challenges and Profiting From the Opportunities Ava Lawrence Northeastern University One might think copyright holders would be willing to negotiate lower synchronization fees with television production companies in return for increased exposure from broadcasts and extensive marketing of the music on television show web sites. Conversely, one might presume that televi- sion production companies would seek lower synchronization fees for the same reasons. However, quite the opposite is happening. According to Gay DiFusco, Vice President of Music Clearance at Warner Bros. Television, copyright holders are responding to requests for broader rights with higher licensing fees. Negotiating the proper fee is tricky in the current market. Copyright holders are charging increasingly higher fees while the licensees are generally not questioning whether those higher fees are justified. Radio was once the premier way to introduce new music to the con- sumer. Prior to the most recent payola settlements, it was very difficult and very expensive to get new music added to a radio station’s playlist. Accord- ing to Jacob Slichter, drummer from the band Semisonic and author of the book So You Wanna Be A Rock & Roll Star, it cost over $700,000 to get the band’s hit song Closing Time on the radio. One has yet to see how the recent payola settlements will affect the ability to get a song played on the radio; changes are happening.
