The Statutory Rate

The royalty payment that goes to the copyright holder is called the Statutory Rate.  We include this royalty in the total we charge you.  The rate is determined by the federal government.

As of January 1, 2006 the statutory mechanical rate is as follows:

  9.10 Cents for songs 5 minutes or less
  or
  1.75 Cents per minute or fraction thereof over 5 minutes.
 
  For example:
5:01 to 6:00 = $.105 (6 x $.0175 = $.105)
6:01 to 7:00 = $.1225 (7 x $.0175 = $.1225)
7:01 to 8:00 = $.14 (8 x $.0175 = $.14)
 

Our Fee
We charge the statutory rate plus a fee for our services.  The entire statutory amount goes to the copyright holder.  The fee pays us.   Our fee is $14.

Best price on the web guaranteed.
We match our competitors' prices.  If you find a lower advertised price on the web for a compulsory license for the specific song you need we will match their fees.

How much you pay for licensing depends upon the following:

1) How many units you produce (ex: # of CDs pressed).
        This determines how much you pay to license one song.

2) How many songs you will license (# of copyrighted songs on your CD).
       
This determines how much you pay to license your total project.

3) The length of your songs in minutes and seconds.
        The statutory rates are higher for longer songs.
