    Entertainment and Sports Law University of Memphis Law School Career Services Office What is entertainment and sports law? Entertainment and sports law is civil law of a specific character that relates to the fields of entertainment and athletics. The practice involves contracts, labor law, corporate finance, intellectual property, and antitrust. Lawyers practicing in the field of entertainment and sports law specialize in knowing and understanding their clients’ industry and are able to advocate for their clients’ interests. In the major professional sports leagues of the National Football League (“NFL”), Major League Baseball (“MLB”), Na- tional Basketball Association (“NBA”), and National Hockey League (“NHL”), players’ associations act much like unions, regulating fees and salaries for sports professionals, coaches, and agents. For the lawyer specializing in entertainment law, intellectual property law takes center stage. Copyright law concerns the rights of creators of artistic works in the music, entertainment, publishing, and fine arts industries. Where do entertainment and Where do sports and entertainment lawyers do? sports lawyers work?

  • Neutral Is the New Blind
    Neutral is the New Blind: Calling for Gender Segregated Evidence in UK Legislative Inquiries regarding the Music Industries Dr Metka Potočnik* Abstract In late 2020, the Government responded to the enormous crisis in the UK music industries, caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, by initiating several legislative inquiries, aimed at reviewing the rules regulating the industry, including rules on commercialisation of intellectual property (IP). The aim of the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) inquiries is purportedly to improve the fairness and viability of the sector, which was devastated by the pandemic. At the same time, the Covid-19 crisis served as a catalyst to expose the pre-existing inequalities and unfairness in the UK music industries. This article explores the path of the UK DCMS 2020-21 legislative inquiry into the Economics of Music Streaming as a case study to the current approach in UK regulation of the music industries. Informed by the feminist theory of relational legal feminism and embedded in the broader framework of IP Social Justice theory, the author argues that the current approach to legislative inquiries is incomplete, because it fails to take into account the systemic barriers faced by women (i.e., all who identify as women), including gender minority musicians in the sector. The evidence collected fails to investigate the lived experience of women, to the detriment of fairness of the overall proposal of future reform. Keywords Feminist scholarship, IP Social Justice, Intellectual Property Law, the music industries, streaming, communication to the public, Brexit, EU-derived domestic legislation, retained EU case law, evidence-led policy, legislative inquiry.

  • From Owning to Using Music: Transactional Music Attorneys Struggle with a Changing Landscape and Its Financial Realities
    From Owning to Using Music: Transactional Music Attorneys Struggle With A Changing Landscape and Its Financial Realities By John Simson1 and Ken Abdo2 It is nearly impossible to describe the momentous seismic shift that we have all witnessed over the past fifteen years with each new technological development and method of delivering music to consumers; it is probably enough to say that it’s been a hell of a ride! Transactional music attorneys have seen the transformation of five major labels into three major entertainment companies: no longer able to achieve the return on investment from CD sales that fueled their enormous growth in the 1980’s and 1990’s, they have tried to re‐invent themselves as leaner, more agile, marketers and branders of recording artists. Record company executives have long claimed that it was record company money that built brands through the recordings they funded and released together with the promotion and marketing they advanced and administered. Tour support was frequently the only way that new bands could afford to tour and grow a fan base. Is it more surprising that for decades record labels didn’t try to share in touring and that their attempts to share in other revenue streams, most notably merchandize and publishing, were on a “right to match” another company’s offer and not compelled under the terms of the record deal? Now it is expected that 1 John L. Simson was signed to Perception Records in 1971 as a singer/songwriter. He was recently named a Special Consultant for Artist Relations and Business Development by Kobalt Music to assist them in building a "neighboring rights" business (collecting artists' royalties around the world).

HOW COPYRIGHT LAW MAY AFFECT POP MUSIC WITHOUT OUR KNOWING IT Peter K. Yu* I. INTRODUCTION When copyright law is linked to the creation of music-the focus of this Symposium-interesting questions arise. In the context of classical music, for example, why could Johann Sebastian Bach "recycle" in his Concerto for Four Harpsichords the opening phrase in Antonio Vivaldi's Concerto for Four Violins, Strings and Harpsichord Continuo?' Why could Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky include in his 1812 Overture repetitive fragments of La Marseillaise and the anthem God Save the Tsar! to portray the clash between the French and Russian armies?2 Would copyright protection in musical works help Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart avoid poverty and the fate of dying penniless? Or would such protection instead lead him to behave more like Johannes Brahms and Giuseppe Verdi, whose creativity slowed down significantly following the introduction of copyright protection?3 * Copyright © 2014 Peter K.

INTRODUCTION The Music Online Competition Act of 2001 ("MOCA")l was recently introduced to Congress by representatives Rick Boucher (D-VA) and Chris Cannon (R-UT) in order to smooth out the jagged edges created in our current, yet outdated, existing copyright law. The bipartisan legislation was encouraged to promote the rapidly expanding online broadcasting and distribution of music and to prevent antitrust behavior as a result of the recent joint ventures between recording companies and online music distributors: MusicNet, supported by RealNetworks, Warner Music Group, Bertelsmann AG and EMI and Pressplay, supported by Sony and Vivendi Universal.2 MOCA was drafted to update and clarify provisions of the Copyright Act, which have spurred costly legal and regulatory disputes.
