Going after music kiosks

Thursday, 21 September 2006

JOHOR BARU: The music industry will lose more than RM36mil a year if mobile phone subscribers choose to purchase illegal ringtones from 3,000 makeshift kiosks or pasar malam stalls nationwide.

In a bid to prevent this, the Recording Industry Association of Malaysia (RIM) has launched a nationwide operation on illegal operators and recorded its first success in Johor.

Two kiosks containing 90,773 songs and ringtones were seized and a 25-year-old operator detained in a raid jointly conducted by RIM and the state Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs office at KipMart Tampoi at 3.40pm on Tuesday.

RIM, MMP set flat fee for digital music use

Tuesday, 01 August 2006

KUALA LUMPUR: It just got even easier for local content developers and telecommunications companies to utilise music in their services.

The Recording Industry of Malaysia (RIM) and Malaysian Music Publishers Bhd (MMP) have agreed to a standard copyright fee of 8% of any royalties gained from the digital use of a song or a piece of music.

Also, a content developer or telco now only needs to approach RIM for permission to use the music instead of going to the particular label, which can be time-consuming if there are several songs involved.
