Copyright Royalty Board Celebrates Two Years

The Copyright Royalty Board -- a three-judge panel that sets rates and terms for copyright statutory licenses and decides how royalties collected by the Copyright Office are distributed -- marked its second anniversary earlier this month with considerable cause for celebration.

Judges James Sledge, William Roberts and Stanley Wisniewski have navigated a number of proceedings involving digital distribution services, music labels, publishers and songwriters, with an astonishingly small administrative and legal staff and, until recently, a temporary hearing room.

The CRB's new digs aren't too bad -- with bright lights, modern tables and chairs and fresh, white paint on the walls. One problem, however, is that the acoustics in the space couldn’t be worse. "This room is designed to have a sound system," Sledge said at the outset of Monday's hearing. "Let me know if you find it."
