Shiva Stella, Public Knowledge; Public Knowledge Welcomes Sen. Wyden’s ACCESS to Recordings Act
"Today, Senator Wyden (D-OR) introduced
the ACCESS to Recordings Act, which would extend federal copyright
protection to pre-1972 sound recordings, and in doing so, harmonize them
with their modern counterparts. Public Knowledge applauds Senator Wyden
for acknowledging the injustices posed by the current system and
fighting to rationalize our copyright law.
The CLASSICS Act, a flawed bill
that would hurt consumers, was recently incorporated into the Music
Modernization Act, a larger bill addressing other issues in music
licensing. Public Knowledge supports the ACCESS to Recordings Act
because it provides full federal protection for pre-1972 sound
recordings -- something the CLASSICS Act avoids."
