PRS for Music seeks views on livestreaming licences

PRS for Music has called for views on its controversial livestreaming licences.

The society has been criticised for failing to consult many industry bodies whose members would be affected by the steep new tariffs.

"As we move forward in this fast-evolving market, and one which is likely to become an increasingly important revenue stream for members, we want to better understand members' and key stakeholders' experience of the online concert market and how it is changing the way music is being used," PRS says.

The call for views is open until March 12.
